Muskrat Brain Replica

Muskrat brain replica measures 1.4 x 0.8 x 0.6 inches. The Ondatra zibethicus brain is a museum-quality polyurethane resin cast of a CAS specimen. 1:1 scale. Made in USA. The muskrat stands as a medium-sized semiaquatic rodent native to North American wetlands. It represents the only species within the genus Ondatra. While they are famous in the Americas, these animals now live in parts of Europe and Asia because of human introduction. Spending most of their time in the water, muskrats perfectly adapt to an aquatic life. They can swim underwater for twelve to seventeen minutes at a time.
