Ce que couvre cette vidéo
A Norwegian rat, roughly six inches of body plus a longer tail, boarded Jeanne Socrates's 38-foot sloop Nereida at Savusavu, Fiji, initially mistaken for a gecko and then a mouse before Socrates saw it clearly one evening.0:36 Multiple eradication attempts failed: glue traps lacked the holding strength for the animal's size, poison bait was ignored, and snap traps were triggered without catching it.1:01 Socrates took a ferry from Blue Lagoon to Denarao to buy additional glue traps and poison bait — those also failed.1:21 Underway on a roughly 30-mile southbound passage past the Sawa Islands toward Octopus Resort and Vumo Island, Socrates is heading to a marina at Denarao to meet pest-control contractor Marley, booked for Friday, who plans to smoke the rat out of its hiding place and catch it.Watch The passage departs Wednesday, with arrival expected around midday Friday.2:10
