MISSED THE ACTION?

these are astounding time-lapse movies of hot rat action for you. we've compressed the images captured by our motion sensing cameras into short time-lapse movies of rats exploring RatCAM1 and RATCAM2. RATCAM1 is in our backyard and RATCAM2 is in our attic.


here's an amazing close-up 22 sec movie from RATCAM2 of a rat eating peanut butter and then walking into a electronic trap to his death. soon two fellow rats explore the scene. there are two versions: the high-quality version for high-speed access (windows media player file quicktime player file) and the lower-quality version for dial-up modems (windows media player file quicktime player file).
here's a 350KB, 5 sec movie of a rat eating peanut butter but avoiding the traps on RATCAM2.
here's a 800KB, 5 sec movie of a rat sniffing the freshly set-up RATCAM2 (in the attic) a few hours after launch.
here's a totally different 5 MB, 30 sec movie from RATCAM1. near the end, a rat explores the camera.
here's yet another, different, 800KB, 5 sec movie of more RATCAM1 action, investigating a banana on 6/10.
