Mice & Rats

Although some people think of mice and rats as child and parent, these two are different organisms. Their biology is different and their life history is different. Though there is limited space here, it's important to point out a few key distinguishing characteristics.

The body of a mouse will grow from as little as 2" to as much as 3-1/2" when fully grown. The rat's body will be as small as 7" but grow to a length of nearly 10". Mice will weight as little as a mere 1/2 ounce to up to 1 ounce whereas a large rat may weigh more than a pound. Color will vary in both mice and rats though they are most commonly seen as gray to brown. A mouse will squeeze through an opening as small as 1/4". A rat manages to get through an opening as small as 1/2". Both rodents have poor eyesight and rely on their acute sense of smell and hearing to compensate.
