APOPO's landmine rats, also known as HeroRATs! At the APOPO Visitor Center, learn how African giant pouched rats (they're much cuter than they sound, and super smart!) are trained to detect landmines and unexploded ordnance in Cambodia and elsewhere, playing a vital role in disaster mitigation. See the rats in action, learn about Cambodia's recent history, and even hold a rat of your own!
