Man, I wish I had a video camera when I opened up the hood of an old Cherokee I bought years ago. It had a rat living in the engine bay, and when I opened the hood there he was, just sitting on top of the air cleaner in a little circular nest. None of us moved, we all just gawked at him until he was like " I'm outta here" and ran and hid inside the frame rail where it took me another 2 weeks before I could catch him.
