N. rajah pic

Somewhat Unstable
Does an actual pic exist of the infamous rajah with a rat in it? If so where can I see the pic at?

Hey,
Ahh, not this again. Someone posted that their rajah ate squirrels, and it started a riot and an argument. Not the best thing to bring up

Oh, and a pic doesn't exist

Ouch, Spec!  You could at least supply a link to the old thread without giving Superimposedhope a hard time.

I was also curious about a rajah eating a rat.  Even though Superimposedhope asks a touchy subject I think he deserves a better response.  There may not be a picture, but is there any reason why a rat could not be digested in a Nep pitcher?

No, it's true! Here's my photographic evidence:

Well, there we have it - incontrovertible proof!

By the way, it looks like your rat is eating the rajah pitcher.

A friend of me here in Germany has a big collection of Nepenthes. As he had a team of a private TV channel which is known for its lurid reporting, he put a plastic mouse in a 30 cm tall N. x mixta pitcher. The team had blue lamps with them and made the whole basement look rather scary. Perhaps I can post some pictures later.

Haha!

Nice pic, Capslock! Is that a dried out Rajah or did you just let your "rat" climb in and get a little wet?

Thanks for the edit Spec! I knew it must've sound worse than you meant it.

JanW, please post some pics. That would be funny to see. Plus, is there a website for that TV Channel? Perhaps an archive I could root through and see the actual story or at least read about? Sometimes, i have good luck understanding German with my Dutch.
 
Capslock,

Is that real, or is it Paint Shop Pro expertise?

Whats the deal ? Is the whole rajah/ rat thing just myth or what makes it so touchy? Nothing taken Spec.
