Rat breaks Guinness World Records for sniffing out 109 landmines
Ronin, an African giant land-mine detecting rat in Cambodia, has become the first rodent to uncover over 100 landmines and other deadly war remnants.
In a recent statement, Apopo, a charity organisation that trains rodents, disclosed that the pouched rat has uncovered 109 landmines and 15 items of unexploded ordnance since August 2021.
Ronin’s exceptional accomplishments have earned the rodent the Guinness World Records (GWR) title for most landmines detected by a rat.
Ronin also broke the previous record held by HeroRAT Magawa, who detected 71 landmines and was awarded a gold medal for his bravery in 2020.
Adam Millward, the managing editor of GWR, lauded Apopo’s HeroRATs for training and caring for the animals.
“Guinness World Records feats aren’t always just about smashing milestones – sometimes they can be about smashing preconceptions too,” Millward said.

“The life-changing results of APOPO’s HeroRATs, their handlers and all the people involved with training and caring for these incredible animals is a revelatory example of the good that can be achieved when humans and animals work together.”
Cambodia, a country in Asia, is still plagued by millions of unexploded munitions left behind from around two decades of civil war, which ended in 1998.
Since Apopo began its operations 25 years ago, the organisation has cleared 169,713 landmines and other explosives across the globe — over 52,00 of them in Cambodia.
The NGO also operates in other war-affected countries, such as Ukraine, South Sudan, and Azerbaijan.
Based in Tanzania, Apopo currently has 104 rodent recruits, or HeroRATS, as the organisation prefers to call them.









Reading this felt productive in a way most internet reading does not, and a look at hazelharborcollectivemart continued that productive feeling, sometimes the open web feels like a waste of time but sites like this remind me why I still bother to look around rather than retreating to old reliable sources for everything I need.
Vague feelings of recognition kept surfacing as I read because the writing names things I have been thinking, and a look at plumcoveartisanoutlet produced more of those recognition moments, content that gives shape to private intuitions is content that makes me feel less alone in my own thinking and this site has that effect.
Going to come back when I have more time to read carefully, the post deserves more than a quick scan, and a stop at ravendockartisanbazaar reinforced that, this is the kind of site that rewards a slower read which is hard to find in this fast paced corner of the internet but really worthwhile.
A clear cut above the usual noise on the subject, and a look at seacoveoutpost only made that gap wider in my view, the kind of place that earns its visitors through quality rather than through aggressive marketing or sponsored placements which is increasingly the only way most sites stay afloat across the modern web.
Worth saying that the prose reads naturally without straining for style, and a stop at lanternorchardoutpost maintained the same unforced quality, writing that achieves elegance without effort is the highest tier and this site has clearly worked out how to land that effortless quality consistently rather than only on the writers best days.
More original than the recycled takes I keep finding on the topic elsewhere, and a quick look at echoharborcollectivemart confirmed it, the kind of site that has its own voice rather than echoing whatever is trending which makes it stand out as a refreshing change from the usual rotation of generic content I see daily.
Worth recognising that the post handled a familiar topic without reaching for any of the obvious hot takes, and a stop at timbermarket continued that fresh treatment, sites that find new angles on subjects others have exhausted are sites worth following carefully and this one has clearly developed that exploratory instinct through patient practice.
Now realising the post has been quietly doing important work in my mind for the past hour, and a stop at plumcovegallery extended that quiet processing, content that continues to do work after I close the tab is content with afterlife in the mind and this site is producing those long lived effects at a meaningful rate.
My usual pattern is to skim and bounce but this site has reset that pattern temporarily, and a stop at stoneharboroutpost maintained the slower reading mode, content that changes how I read is content with structural influence and this site has clearly nudged my reading behaviour toward something better at least for the duration of these visits.
Liked how the post handled an objection I was forming as I read, and a stop at flintstonegalleria similarly anticipated where my thinking was going next, the rare writer who can predict reader concerns and address them in advance is doing something most online content fails to do despite that being basic editorial work.
Thanks for the readable length, I finished it without checking how much was left, and a stop at ravensummitcollective kept me reading the same way, when I stop noticing the length of a piece because the content is engaging enough to sustain attention without willpower the writer has done their job well today.
Honestly the simplicity is what makes this work, the topic is not buried under filler words or overly complex examples, and a quick look at rosecovevault showed the same sensible style, I left with what I came for and no headache from over reading which is a real win these days.
Genuinely well crafted writing, the kind that makes the topic look easier than it actually is, and a look at fernbrookvendorfoundry added even more depth, you can feel the experience behind every line which is something only writers who have been at this for a while can pull off with this level of grace.
The structure of the post made it easy to follow without losing track of where I was, and a look at pearldockartisanhouse kept the same logical flow going, this site clearly understands that organisation is half the battle in keeping readers engaged from the first line to the last across any kind of post.
Appreciate the thoughtful approach, the writer clearly took time to make this readable for someone who is not already an expert, and a look at skymeadowtradehouse kept that going nicely, easy on the eyes and easy on the brain which is always a winning combination when reading on a busy day.
A handful of memorable phrases from this one I will probably use later, and a look at woodtrailartisanhouse added a couple more, content that contributes language to my own communication rather than just facts is content with a different kind of utility and this site is providing that linguistic utility consistently across what I read.
Reading this post made me realise I had been settling for lower quality elsewhere, and a look at securebuyingstore extended that recalibration, content that exposes how much I had been accepting in adjacent sources is content with calibrating effect on my standards and this site is performing that calibration function across topics for me reliably.
Stayed longer than planned because each section earned the next, and a look at crystalcovevault kept that pulling effect going across more pages, the kind of subtle pull that good writing exerts on attention is something I find harder and harder to resist when I encounter it on the open web today.
Now thinking about how this post will age over the coming years, and a stop at elmwillowemporium suggested the same durability, content built to age well rather than to capture the attention of the moment is content with a different kind of value and this site has clearly chosen the long horizon over the short one.
Vague feelings of recognition kept surfacing as I read because the writing names things I have been thinking, and a look at uplandcoveoutlet produced more of those recognition moments, content that gives shape to private intuitions is content that makes me feel less alone in my own thinking and this site has that effect.
Really appreciate that the writer did not assume I would read every other related post first, and a look at rainharboroutpost kept that self contained feel going where each piece can stand alone, accessibility for new readers is a sign of generous editorial thinking and this site has clearly invested in that approach.
Picked up on several small touches that suggest a careful editor, and a look at coastcoveartisanmarket suggested the same hand at work across the broader site, editorial consistency at a granular level is one of the strongest signs that an operation is serious rather than just hobbyist and this site reads as serious throughout.
Found this useful, the points line up well with what I have been thinking about lately, and a stop at timbercovegoodsstore added some angles I had not considered yet, definitely walking away with more than I came for which is the best outcome from time spent reading online for any kind of topic.
Quietly the writers approach to the topic differs from the dominant takes I have been encountering, and a stop at amberharborstudio extended that distinctive approach, content that maintains a different perspective without explicitly arguing against the dominant ones is content with confident editorial identity and this site has that confidence throughout pieces.
Now appreciating that the post left me with enough to say in a follow up conversation, and a look at alpinegrovegoodsstore added more material for those follow ups, content that prepares me for related conversations rather than just informing me alone is content with social utility and this site provides that social armament reliably for me.
Took a chance on the headline and was rewarded, and a stop at valevendor kept the rewards coming as I clicked through, the kind of place where every link leads somewhere worth the click is a small luxury on the modern web where so many sites are mostly empty calories disguised as content.
Glad I clicked through from where I did because this turned out to be worth the time spent, and after rainharbortrading I had a fuller picture, the kind of content that earns its visitors through delivering value rather than chasing them through aggressive advertising or constant pop ups appearing everywhere on the screen lately.
I have been using Revery Play Casino for roughly four months, so I have a fair idea of how it runs. Found it through a comparison site, because my old one kept delaying withdrawals. The Revery Play lobby is decent, with a good mix of slots, table games and live dealer.
The games are supplied by Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Play’n GO, Red Tiger and a few boutique studios. The usual suspects sit at the top, though I spend more time on the newer releases. Evolution handles the live dealer area, so Lightning Roulette, Crazy Time, blackjack and baccarat. English speaking dealers around the clock, but low stake tables get busy in the evening.
The introductory package at Revery Play is a 100 percent match up to 200 pounds with free spins. The playthrough sits at 35x, fairly standard for this market. The latest promotions are listed at [url=https://www.pages.fahho.mx/?p=10958]revery play[/url] since these change monthly. They run ongoing promotions beyond the welcome deal.
The floor is ten pounds. Cards and PayPal are accepted. Withdrawals to PayPal landed within a day, debit card payouts were the usual two to three days. Verification was the standard KYC — passed on the first attempt.
I use the mobile site on my phone and loading times are fast. No app needed, which honestly suits me. Support responds on live chat in English and they read the question before answering. Regulation is Curacao based, so not UKGC, which is worth knowing. Payouts have always come through for me.
A piece that read as if the writer was thinking carefully rather than just typing fluently, and a look at mintorchardvault continued that considered quality, the difference between fluent typing and careful thinking shows up in writing and this site reads as the product of thought rather than just the product of language fluency apparently.
Closed several other tabs to focus on this one as I read, and a stop at crowncovevault held my undivided attention the same way, content that earns full focus in an attention environment full of competing pulls is content doing something genuinely well and the team behind it deserves recognition for that achievement consistently.
Reading this slowly to give it the attention it deserved, and a stop at maplestoneemporium earned the same slow read, choosing to read slowly is a small act of respect for content quality and very few sites earn that respect from me but this one did so without any explicit ask which is the cleanest way.
Came here from another site and ended up exploring much further than I planned, and a look at caramelbrookvendorfoundry only encouraged more exploration, the kind of place where one click leads to another not through manipulative design but through genuinely interesting content is rare and worth highlighting when found like this somewhere on the open internet.
Started forming counter examples to test the claims and the post handled most of them implicitly, and a look at woodharborgoodsstore continued that anticipatory style, writers who think two steps ahead of the critical reader save themselves from a lot of follow up work and this writer has clearly internalised that habit consistently.
One of the more honest takes on the topic I have seen lately, no spin and no oversell, and a stop at canyonharborgoodsstore kept that going, the kind of voice the open web could use a lot more of rather than the endless echo chamber of recycled opinions floating around every social platform these days.
Picked this for my morning read because the topic seemed worth the time, and a look at gladeharbortrading confirmed the choice was right, my morning reading slot is precious and giving it to this site felt like a good investment rather than a waste which is a higher endorsement than I usually offer for content.
Reading this triggered a small change in how I think about the topic going forward, and a stop at brightharborcollectivemart reinforced that subtle shift, the rare content that actually moves my thinking rather than just confirming or filling it is the kind I most value and this site is providing that kind of impact today.
Beyond the topic at hand this site reads as a small ongoing project of taking writing seriously, and a look at stoneharborcollectivemart reinforced that project quality, sites that treat publishing as an ongoing serious practice rather than as content production for traffic are sites worth supporting and this one has clearly chosen the serious approach.
Reading this slowly to give it the attention it deserved, and a stop at mossharboroutpost earned the same slow read, choosing to read slowly is a small act of respect for content quality and very few sites earn that respect from me but this one did so without any explicit ask which is the cleanest way.
Worth recognising that the post handled a familiar topic without reaching for any of the obvious hot takes, and a stop at sagedockartisanbazaar continued that fresh treatment, sites that find new angles on subjects others have exhausted are sites worth following carefully and this one has clearly developed that exploratory instinct through patient practice.
If quality blog writing is dying as people sometimes claim then this site is one piece of evidence that it has not died yet, and a look at oceanoutfitters extended that evidence, the broader cultural question about online writing has empirical answers in specific sites and this one is contributing to a more optimistic answer overall.
However measured this site clears the bar I set for sites I take seriously, and a stop at birchharboroutpost continued clearing that bar, the metrics I use for site quality are admittedly informal but they are consistent and this site has cleared them on multiple measurements across multiple visits which is meaningful for my evaluation.
Spent a few minutes here and came away with a clearer picture of the topic, the writing keeps things simple without dumbing them down, and after a stop at granitestoneexchange the rest of the points lined up neatly which is something I appreciate when I am short on time and need answers fast.
Reading more of the archives is now on my plan for the weekend, and a stop at apricotharbortrading confirmed the archive worth the time, the rare archive worth a dedicated reading session rather than just casual sampling is the rare archive of serious work and this site has clearly produced enough of that work to warrant the deeper exploration.
Closed my email tab so I could read this without interruption, and a stop at ivorycrate earned the same protected attention, when content is good enough to defend against the usual digital distractions you know it deserves better than the half attention most online reading gets in a typical busy day.
Solid little post, the kind that does not need to be flashy because the substance is doing the work, and a look at quickstonegalleria kept that quiet confidence going across the site, this is what writing looks like when the writer trusts the content to land on its own without theatrics or unnecessary attention seeking behaviour.
Glad to have another data point on a question I am still thinking through, and a look at plumridgegoodsstore added two more, content that acknowledges its place in a wider conversation rather than pretending to settle the question alone is intellectually honest in a way that I wish was more common across the open web.
Found the use of subheadings really helpful for scanning back through the post later, and a stop at flintridgecollectivemart kept that reader friendly approach going, navigation is something many blog writers ignore but small structural choices make a noticeable difference for someone returning to find a specific point again days or weeks later.
Comfortable reading experience throughout, no jarring tone shifts and no awkward formatting, and a look at ferncovecommercehub kept that smooth feel going, the kind of editorial polish that goes unnoticed when present but glaring when absent is something this site has clearly invested in across the broader content as well which deserves recognition.
Found the use of subheadings really helpful for scanning back through the post later, and a stop at auroracoveoutpost kept that reader friendly approach going, navigation is something many blog writers ignore but small structural choices make a noticeable difference for someone returning to find a specific point again days or weeks later.
Closed the post with a small satisfied sigh, and a stop at acornstonegalleria produced the same gentle exhale, content that ends well is content that respects the rhythm of reading and the writers here have clearly thought about how their pieces close rather than just trailing off when they run out of things to say.
