Getting alcoholic is not in the domain of humans only. In India Rats have developed a taste for alcohol and are chewing into beer cans and whiskey bottle tops at a police storehouse.

Rats are gnawing at beer cans and making holes in caps of whisky bottles stored in police storehouses in eastern India and apparently getting drunk, authorities said.

The rodents' love for liquor has the police department in Bihar state of India stumped as it tries to store hundreds of bottles seized from illegal sellers from across the state in Capital City Patna, said Kundan Krishnan, a senior officer.

"We are fed up with these drunk rats and cannot explain why they have suddenly turned to consumption of alcohol," he said.

The problem costs revenue as the seized liquor is usually sold through auctions, he said.
Rats were also attacking people near the police buildings, nibbling at their toes, although it was not clear if they were under the influence, officials and witnesses said.
