The greater cane rat is a large rodent species native to various regions of Africa. These rats are robust, with coarse brown fur and a distinctive white-spotted face. They primarily inhabit grasslands, swamps, and agricultural areas, where they feed on a diet of grasses, reeds, and various plant materials. These rats are sometimes hunted for their meat, which is considered a delicacy in some African regions. However, they are also seen as agricultural pests due to their feeding habits.
