Canada really has it all: Universal health careThe cost of living is lower than the United States, and it is currently mouse can drive a car We’ve covered self-driving mice beforeBut that was done by scientists in the lab. Kuzko and Kronk, Canada’s self-driving rats, were able to learn how to do this right in their own homes.
Shaun Stephens-Whale and Kendal Crawford, a couple in British Columbia, adopted two rats and quickly realized their new pets were surprisingly capable of learning new skills like shaking hands and even Solve puzzle boxes designed for dogs. Crawford’s father built little electric cars for his daughter’s mice (his mice?) with three foot-sized pedals to allow them to move forward and turn left or right. CTV News reported,
But after Kuzko and Kronk learned to press the middle pedal to move forward on the first day, Shaun and Kendal committed to teaching them how to turn left and right, which the rats mastered after a week.
Now, the mice can drive in random patterns across the living room to get to the person holding the food. If they get stuck, they know how to turn around and go in the right direction.
Kuzko and Kronk’s custom The mouse cars look like adorable little fish tanks decorated like taxis and they have working head and tail lights. The mice can jump in and out of them customscars are personalized to their will and they control them more and more. So the next time you encounter a completely paralyzed person on the road, you can be even more angry at their incompetence, because even a lowly mouse can successfully learn to drive a car.
