Description
Formosa Fauna is back this week to entertainingly educate you about animals both in Taiwan and abroad! Spend the next 20 minutes listening to this episode and feeding your noggin with fun facts about the animal kingdom so you can become smarter than all of your friends!
Rats are one of the most widely owned pets in Taiwan. Despite that, there is still a decent amount of stigma people hold towards them. Today we talk to our very own Rti reporter and host Amanda Stephens about her experience having rats as pets. The journey was one that can be characterized as a happy accident, as she had originally wanted a hamster.
