R.O.U.S. 

Rodents of Unusual Size, from the 1987 movie, The Princess Bride. They are known to attack in the Fire Swamp.
-After Westley rescues her from the lightning quicksand-

Buttercup: We'll never succeed. We may as well die here.

Westley: No, no. We have already succeeded. I mean, what are the three terrors of the Fire Swamp? One, the flame spurt - no problem. There's a popping sound preceding each; we can avoid that. Two, the lightning sand, which you were clever enough to discover what that looks like, so in the future we can avoid that too.

Buttercup: Westley, what about the R.O.U.S.'s?

Westley: Rodents Of Unusual Size? I don't think they exist.

-Immediately, an R.O.U.S. attacks him-

R.O.U.S. 

Rodents Of Unusual Size. These guys seem t be a higher level Lab Rat in Borderlands.

They also have adapted an unusual power to shoot a type of shock beam with their now goggle'd eyes.
When my friend and I are going through on level 50, we see these futuristic larger rat type enemy. They are called R.O.U.S.; short for Rodents Of Unusual Size
But when we are boosting lower levels with our level 50, we only see Lab Rats.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
