"Behind the Sandrat Hoax'" is a 1968 satirical science fiction short story by Christopher Anvil. Sam Matthews claims to have survived for two months without water by eating a creature called a sandrat. The story (told in the form of letters and newspaper articles) follows the pig-headed scientific community attempting to deny this discovery, even in the face of additional proof that eating a sandrat prevents dehydration.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Tropes:
