Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Systematic Synopsis of the Muskrats
One [muskrat] was seen in a lake near Crested Butte chasing under water a water dog, Amblystoma tigrinum, which it finally captured by making a sudden dash forward and seizing it with its teeth. The rat then came to the surface with its prey in its mouth, and not until then was it seen to be a muskrat, for while the chase was in progress the observers supposed it to be a mink.
