Jessica Edwards posted a video to Instagram showing the rodent -- dubbed Avocado Rat by commenters in honor of New York's famous Pizza Rat -- dashing down the subway tracks at Brooklyn's Greenpoint Ave. station while carrying an avocado half.

The video, which quickly went viral, recalled the viral fame of Pizza Rat, a rat filmed carrying a whole slice of pizza at a New York subway station in 2015.
