Hello, I'm a biologist with a focus on animal behavior. When it comes to rats, they are indeed capable of jumping and can potentially jump on a person if they feel threatened, cornered, or if they are trying to escape. However, it's not common for rats to jump on humans unprovoked, as they generally prefer to avoid contact with larger animals. Rats are also known to be good climbers and can navigate their environment by climbing and jumping over obstacles.

Brown rats show a tendency to be negative geotaxis which means they prefer to move downwards as opposed to upwards. Black rats are superior climbers and can climb any slightly roughed surface up or down. Brown rats can jump vertically more than 77cm and 120cm horizontally.
