Hey Wikipedia, what's a Muskrat?

The muskrat (or Ondatra zibethicus) is a medium-sized semi-aquatic rodent native to North America, and introduced in parts of Europe, Asia, and South America. The muskrat is found in wetlands and is a very successful animal over a wide range of climates and habitats. It plays an important role in nature and is a resource of food and fur for humans, as well as being an introduced species in much of its present range.


Ok, cool. The rodent is also the focus of that super-weird Captain and Tenille song, "Muskrat Love," right? A ditty about love between muskrats, right? Like, it wasn't a metaphor for an actual romantic relationship between grown adults, it was about muskrats gettin' they sex on or whatever?

Let's go to the video tape.


Okay, yep, that about solves it.

P.S. 1970's, you so crazy. Like, seriously F***ED . UP.
