'That is like a horror movie': Experts are left baffled by mysterious 'baby rat' creature found crawling on a kitchen floor

A New Zealand man has been left baffled after finding bizarre-looking alien-like creatures crawling across his mother's kitchen floor.

Tim Clerke, from Auckland, in New Zealand's North Island, took to social media in a bid to uncover the identity of the abnormal looking animals last week.

Mr Clerke asked his Facebook friends for their help in identifying the creatures that have been dubbed as something out of a 'horror movie'.

Despite the video amassing over 3,000 views, users were still none-the-wiser as to what the animals were.

Even experts couldn't come to a conclusive decision on what type of animal appeared in the video.

The Biosecurity New Zealand entomology team suggested the video showed the detached legs of a moth.

'They suggest that something [possibly a cat] had just recently eaten the body of the moth, which may explain why a few of the legs were still twitching,' a spokesperson told Yahoo!7.

While experts from the University of Auckland had an entirely different theory and said the video was a hoax.

And in a third differing opinion, Eric Edwards, an insect expert, said it was possible the unknown specimens could be a rat-tailed maggots.

The true identity of the animals is yet to be confirmed.
