We use Rats to clear Minefields – Here’s How

In Africa landmines still, claim thousands of lives every year. But astonishingly rats are now helping us to get rid of them – faster than ever before. But these specially trained rats, nicknamed ‘HeroRATs, not only fight against landmines but also against Tuberculosis, one of the deadliest and most contagious diseases in the world and that way help to save tens of thousands of lives per year.
