Rodents named after Rush

Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart now have rodent namesakes. Two capabaras (giant rodents that look like “oversized tail-less beavers”) at Toronto’s High Park Zoo gave birth to triplets, and the zoo held a contest to name the triplets. The result was distinctly Canadian: The names of the three members of Rush. For what it’s worth, “Snap, Crackle and Pop” was a runner-up.
