Armoured and Overgrown Rat?

Once again, Tekong never fails to surprise me.

There I was at 0545 am watching them botaks do 5BX, when all of a sudden the COS walked past the bootwashing point (scene of the the torture of a poor rat last week) and exclaimed excitedly. I had a feeling of dread wash over me, as I thought yet another rat was to make its unfortunate appearance. Looking underneath the grill of the drain, the size of what I saw shocked me. That's one big honkin' rat! Yet, the scaly texture and the flat tail meant something was amiss. That's no rat! That's a freaking ARMADILLO!

(You can tell it's a boy)

Fella was not that big for an armadillo I guess, and it was just ambling about minding its own business and alarming the recruits in the process and such. So freaking cute uh. Who would have thought an armadillo would wander about into our building?
