I use to take care of some Charles River rats. They were second
generation
cesarian delivered rats, After the first experiment they were to be
disposed of. Some we took to a snake farm where they made treats for
rattle snakes the size of stove pipes.
We tested several batches to find out if rats can swim without there
wiskers, Have you ever tried it??

Nope. Why were you interested in whether or not they could swim without
their whiskers?
