Rats!

Why do rats have tails?
Abigail asked her sister, Emily, this while they were playing with Emily's rats, Lily and Rose.
Ever the budding pedagogue, Emily answered, 'Well, Abigail' (this is usually how Emily starts), 'Rats need tails to help them keep their balance. They use their tails to sense their place in space.'
Emily was so happy about being asked a question by her sister she immediately reported it to this blogger, who promised to file the report ASAP.
