Isaac. The Story of a Little Giant

Collections

Did you know an ordinary rat can make a perfect sapper? The rats’ sharp sense of smell, intelligence and ability to learn fast make them perfect candidates for the task. They are indispensable helpers for landmine-disposal experts. A non-governmental organisation based in Tanzania, APOPO (Anti-Personnel Landmines Removal Product Development), breeds African giant pouched rats and trains them to detect explosives. One of these rats, Isaac, undergoes training in APOPO. When he’s ready for missions, he’s sent to Cambodia, where they suffer more landmine accidents a year than any other country.
