Once when I was a college student, I was taking the #7 train in Queens
coming home and around the old Shea Stadium the corner of my eye
caught near the edge of a oily small body of water, an animal the size
of a large cat. I realized what I saw was I think a water rat (it was
no cat) and it was huge. I was probably 50+ feet elevated above the
water but it was big enough to catch the corner of my eye so I know it
was huge. I never could believe a rat could be so large.... scary.

What I thought were big rats turned out to be possums.

See my previous post about possums. Also I may be wrong but I don't
think NYC (Queens) has possums but they sure have lots of rats
