In Vietnam, rats are a popular foodâhereâs why.
Rat or bat? The chef dangled the raw, bloody carcasses before my face as if this were a tantalizing choice. Normally, Iâd say neither, but seeing as how it was New Yearâs Eve in this Mekong River border town, a little bit of adventurous eating seemed apropos. My decision took all of two secondsâthe rat.

Ngoring Lake Sanjiangyuan National Nature Reserve, Qinghai, China, 2014 In the 1990s, China’s Yellow River began to dry up, and in 1997 it failed to reach the sea for several months.
