R.O.U.S.s are "rodents of unusual size" from "The Princess Bride". They were one of the three dangers of the "fire swamp", and Westley told Buttercup that he didn't believe they existed after they had escaped the other two (lightning sand and flame spurt).
The link talks about a new species found, a rat that's five times larger than usual, thus, a rodent of unusual size. ;)
