Apparently this has been going on for a couple of years; but I must have missed the original reports. A little weird; but very interesting. Anyone care to guess what this is all about??

I know. I know. (jumping up and down with my hand in the air [

It looks like someone is feeding their pet rodent a piece of banana.

It's all just one big Rat Race, anyway, isn't it?

Okay. It's been 24 hours so.....
I forget the country but they are using rats to sniff out landmines. This is one of the rats with a harness on it. Must be break time.

Well, it looks like Jamie is up on his current events!! The picture is of an African Giant Pouch Rat taking a banana break in Mozambique. These rats have been trained by a company in Belgium to sniff out land-mines that were planted during the civil war that persisted for nearly 20 years. As an interesting aside, they are now working on training honeybees to do the same job. For more details you can check out this link.

I personally think they should use cats instead.[}]
