| A gibnut is a rodent that lives in the rain forest, roughly equivalent to a rat. It can grow quite large, up to 2' with tail. Living on the forest floor, this solitary animal eats leaves, fallen fruit and tubers dug from the ground. It is the most prized game animal of Belize, and is considered quite the delicacy in Central America.
But, I personally wouldn't order gibnut, delicacy or no.
It's rat.
