A rat king is a collection of rats or mice whose tails are intertwined and bound together in some way. This could be a result of an entangling material like hair, a sticky substance such as sap or gum, or the tails being tied together.
A similar phenomenon with squirrels has been observed, which has had modern documented examples.
