Project Trains HeroRATs to save lives and limbs


HeroRATs are being trained to save lives and limbs, by using their exceptional sense of smell to sniff out unexploded landmines and tuberculosis.

Landmines pose a structural barrier to development and economic growth, long after a war ends. Detection of landmines is difficult, dangerous, costly and time-consuming. Trained HeroRATs offer a cheap, efficient and effective solution to this problem.”
