Wild Rats. In the wild, the life expectancy for a rat is much lower: 95 percent of wild rats die before they reach their first birthday. A 1-year-old rat would be around 30 years old in human terms. The most common cause of death in wild rats comes from predators, such as owls, hawks and foxes.
Rats are, in my opinion, the very best pets for people looking for a small animal companion. They are smart, adorable, easily trainable, social, and if given the proper exercise and nutrition they can live around two to three years. Rats are super cute, adorable little creatures that come in a wide variety of coat colors, textures, and breeds.
