Please, does anyone know the name of this bushmeat?
This animal barks at night, lives in holes inside trees in colonies.
Don't knows its name in English but we call it "Akuaghagha" in my village in Edo state because its barks sounds like that at night.

This is called, the greater cane rat. It is distantly related to the house rat, but just fatter. From my experience, they taste like the house rat.

I don't know if you know me. But this is not grass cutter. I know grass cutter too well. It's called "Auta" in my dialect and not language. Thanks.

Its your language. Not a dialect. Yorubas call it Oya. That is a grass cutter. It does not live in rocky environment.[/quote]
