EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot by Don Hadden, we witness an unexpected star stealing the limelight at the back of Sudarshan Hotel in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. Meet DH-3467, a sly and agile black rat who has mastered the art of urban survival. With its sleek ebony fur and beady eyes brimming with curiosity, this mischievous rodent effortlessly blends into its surroundings. Known as rattus rattus or black rat, it goes by many aliases – house rat, roof rat, ship rat – but here in India's vibrant northwest region, it reigns supreme as the ultimate urban wildlife daredevil. Perched on a ledge against a backdrop of colorful Rajasthani architecture, our protagonist seems to revel in its solitary existence. Unfazed by human presence or bustling city life around it, this fearless creature embodies resilience amidst adversity. While some may consider rats pests due to their knack for scavenging through garbage bins and sneaking into hidden corners of buildings (shhh. . . let's not mention that), there is no denying their undeniable charm when captured through Don Hadden's lens. So next time you stumble upon these clever critters scurrying about your neighborhood streets or hear them rustling behind closed doors (oops! sorry again), take a moment to appreciate their unwavering adaptability and tenacity. After all, even in the concrete jungles we call home, nature
