The Future of Humanity

Working together we can focus world attention on neglected landmine detection issue. Rats are used for their sensitivity to smells and ability to be trained. With clicker training, rats learn to find target smells and locate landmines. They are accredited and tested like dogs. Rats are a more affordable option and can reduce the cost per square meter. Eleven African governments have seen success and endorse the use of rats to clear landmines. This project is about empowering communities with local resources for humanitarian tasks and fostering a sustainable world.
