Design by Satoshi Kitamura Why use rats? 1. Rats use their sense of smell to find explosives. Therefore, unlike metal detectors, they can detect both metal and plastic cased landmines. 2. Rats have an incredibly good sense of smell. 3. Rats are light. They will not trip off mines when they stand on them. 4. Rats are easy to breed and train. 5. Rats are small and very cheap to feed, maintain and transport. 6. Rats are less emotionally tied to their handler than dogs. It is therefore easier to transfer them between handlers. 7. Rats are everywhere. They can deal with almost any environment. 8. Rats are happy to do repetitive tasks. 9. You can adopt a rat. It costs just € 5,- a month. And in Africa € 5,- buys a lot of peanuts! http://www.apopo.org http://www.herorat.org
