Landmine threats

• Detection of landmines is difficult, dangerous, costly and time-consuming. Therefore:

• We introduce the Landmine detection rats (HERORATs).

• It takes approximately two months and 50 USD to fully train a HeroRAT.

• The rats are trained to use their exceptional sense of smell to detect landmines.

• With this, we can do a joint operation with the government to remove the landmines nearby the factory.
