Named after their long hind feet, the rats were shown to evade danger with impressive jumps - for the first time.Researchers from University of California Riverside (UCR), San Diego State University, and UC Davis teamed for the project using the latest high-speed cameras.After setting up a series of night-vision cameras in the desert, they discovered the rodents were booting their adversaries.Despite the speed of the snake's strike, kangaroo rats turn out to be even faster, with typical reaction times around 70 milliseconds and some at just 38 milliseconds.Associate Professor Timothy Higham, of UCR, said that his system could teach humans how to escape high-performing predators.He said: "Both rattlesnakes and kangaroo rats are extreme athletes, with their maximum performance occurring during these interactions."This makes the system excellent for teasing apart the factors that might tip the scale in this arms race."These lightning-fast and powerful manoeuvres, especially when exe *** Local Caption *** 29614

***This is the moment a grass snake tried to eat a frog on a golf course - but couldn¿t eat it `whole in one¿. Lindsey Henniker-Heaton, 68, was on the 10th hole when his friend Philip McMenamin called him over from green on the 17th. He arrived to find a three-foot grass snake trying to consume what looked like a dead frog. The golfer got his iPhone out and started to take a photo of the event when the amphibian kicked into life escaped the clutches of its reptilian rival. The battle took place at Thornbury Golf Club in South Gloucestershire, where Mr Henniker-Heaton is the seniors captain*** (FOTO: DUKAS/ACTIONPRESS)
