It's not that cute; have you seen my routine? |
A Mars rock that bears a [strik]ing resemblance to a
rodent is scuttling across the Internet with gusto, even inspiring some
fans to set up a Twitter account in its name.
UFO buffs spotted the purported [Rocky the Squirrel or dismissively named] "Mars rat" in a panoramic photo snapped in September 2012 by NASA's Curiosity rover. Zooming in on a portion of the image reveals what appears to be a rodent crouching between two rocks, its nose to the ground.

"It's a cute rodent on Mars. Note its lighter-color upper and lower
eyelids, its nose and cheek areas, its ear, its front leg and stomach,"
Scott Waring wrote at UFO Sightings Daily back in December.
"Looks similar to a squirrel camouflaged in the stones and sand by its colors."

"Why would they not tell us about it?" Waring wrote. "Because the
squirrel would be expected to die eventually and that would get PETA
[People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals] to fight against them in a
court of law." More
