Giant Street Rat Spotted in Idaho, Goes Viral on TikTok [Video]

It is happening more and more: Idaho, viral, on the internet.

To be honest, we kind of love it. If you're to stray too far from our great state and ask someone where Idaho is on a map, it's probably fair to say that few will actually be able to tell you.  Ohio? Iowa? Potatoes? Despite the fact that "the secret is out" for many here in Idaho--we are still a bit of a tucked away gem.

In the latest episode of "Idaho goes viral"--a driver in the small town of Idaho Falls captured something on the street that you don't even see in the heart of New York City or Las Vegas!

Here's a look at this insane TikTok with over 3 million views

What would you do if you saw this thing on the street!?

As you can tell from the slide-by-slide of the viral moment, a driver in Idaho Falls caught this man carrying what turns out to be a really, really large street rat.

Say WHAT!?

After hollering at him, he approached the car to say hello and it seems that there is nothing fake about the large creature.

Shocked, the woman in the car says that it's very cute... "I think" and couldn't believe it when he went in for the kiss!
