These are probably white, eurocentric rats that have been bred and experimented 
upon without regard for their potential as basketball stars, or without regards 
to their fundamental animal rights. They clearly need representation.  I am 
sure in the future we will not agree to use such hapless animals for 
participants in research merely to demonstrate some eurocentric principles of 
learning that would not apply to third world rats.  I am not sure an IRB would 
approve of parading such captive creatures for the perverse enrichment of other 
captive research participants (college sophomores).   We will some day, 
eliminate all such participants from any kind of research, except those needed 
for national security purposes. ;-)  Well, okay... Gary
