The bamboo rat weighs nearly 1kg, is nearly 40cm long; has white fur; pink eyes, nose and teeth.

Mr. Trung said that he dug up this bamboo rat on the top of Phen Mountain in the area. Unlike the usual bamboo rat nests, this bamboo rat's hole is very deep, with many nooks and crannies. It took Mr. Trung a full afternoon to dig and catch this bamboo rat.

This is also the first time he has seen a bamboo rat with such beautiful white fur. When he dug it up, he brought it home and raised it for more than 3 months. Many people have come to see it and offered high prices, but Mr. Trung has not sold it because he knows it is a rare white-furred bamboo rat.

“Looking at the cave and the dead bamboo, I guessed it was a rat cave. When I dug there, I was extremely scared, thinking it was a monster. It took a while before I dared to use a stick to hold it down and catch it,” Trung added.
