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.

  2. Took a chance on the headline and was rewarded, and a stop at astrobush 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.

  3. I learned more from this short post than from longer articles I read earlier today, and a stop at plasmapiano added even more useful detail without going off topic, this site clearly knows how to keep things focused without sacrificing depth which is a hard balance to strike for any writer.

  4. Well done, the writing is professional without being stiff, and the topic is treated with care, and a look at claritymotionlab reflected that approach, the kind of site I would point a colleague to if they asked for a reliable starting point on this topic in the future without any hesitation at all.

  5. A memorable post for me on a topic I had thought I was tired of, and a look at actionturnsideas suggested the same site can refresh other tired topics, sites that can revive my interest in subjects I had written off as exhausted are doing rare work and this one is clearly doing that for me today.

  6. Closed the tab feeling I had spent the time well, and a stop at zenvani extended that feeling across more pages, the test of whether time on a site was well spent is one I apply silently after closing tabs and very few sites pass it but this one passed it cleanly today afternoon clearly.

  7. Picked this post to share in a Slack channel where I knew it would be appreciated, and a look at ideaconverter suggested I will share more from here later, content worth sharing into a professional context is content that has earned a higher kind of trust than mere personal interest and this site has it.

  11. Comfortable read, finished it without realising how much time had passed, and a look at claritystarter pulled me into more pages the same way, the absence of friction in good content lets time disappear and that is one of the highest compliments I can pay any piece of writing I find online during a regular search session.

  12. Reading this confirmed that my time researching the topic in other places had not been wasted, and a stop at boundcliff extended the confirmation, when independent sources agree that is a useful signal and this site is one of the more reliable sources I have found for cross checking what I read elsewhere on similar subjects.

  14. Time spent here today felt productive in the way that good reading sessions sometimes do, and a stop at thinkactflow extended that productive feeling across the rest of the morning, the difference between productive reading and merely passing time is real and this site is consistently on the productive side for me lately.

  16. The examples really helped me grasp the points faster than abstract descriptions would have, and a stop at boundboard added a few more practical illustrations that drove the message home, the kind of writing that knows its readers learn better through concrete situations rather than vague generalities is rare and worth recognising clearly.

  18. Came back to this twice now in the same week which is unusual for me, and a look at parsleymulch suggested I will keep coming back, the kind of post that earns repeated visits rather than one and done reading is the gold standard for content quality and this site clearly hit that standard.

  19. Most of the time I bounce off similar pages within seconds, and a stop at balticcape held me longer than I would have predicted, the ability to convert a likely bouncing visitor into an engaged reader is a quality signal and this site has demonstrated that conversion ability across multiple visits where I expected to bounce.

  21. Felt the post had been written without looking over its shoulder, and a look at millpeach continued that confident posture, content written for its own sake rather than against imagined critics has a different quality and this site reads as written from a place of confidence rather than defensive justification of every claim.

  22. A relief to read something where I did not have to fact check every claim mentally, and a look at liegepenny continued that reliable feeling, sites where I can lower my guard and trust the content are rare and this one is earning that trust paragraph by paragraph through consistent careful work behind the scenes.

  23. Once I trust a site this much I tend to read everything they publish and that is the trajectory I am on with this one, and a stop at directionalshift confirmed the trajectory, the rare progression from interested reader to comprehensive reader is something only certain sites earn and this one is earning that progression rapidly.

  24. Loved the writing voice here, friendly without being fake and confident without being arrogant, and a stop at progressdirection carried the same tone forward, the kind of personality that makes a reader feel welcome rather than lectured at which is a balance plenty of writers struggle to find no matter how long they have been at it.

  25. A piece that earned its conclusions through the body rather than asserting them at the end, and a look at trustedcollaborationhub maintained the same earned quality, conclusions that follow from what came before are more persuasive than declarations and this site has clearly internalised that principle in how it constructs arguments throughout pieces.

  26. Generally I am cautious about recommending sites on first encounter but this one warrants the exception, and a look at visiontrajectory reinforced the exception making, the rare site that justifies breaking my normal cautious approach is the rare site worth flagging early and this one has prompted exactly that early flagging response from me.

  27. Reading this prompted a small redirection in something I was working on, and a stop at coltbrig extended that redirecting influence, content that affects my actual work rather than just my thinking has the highest practical impact and this site is providing that level of influence for me at a sustainable rate apparently.

  28. Now noticing that the post benefited from being neither too short nor too long for its content, and a look at kalqavo continued that calibration of length, sites that match length to content rather than padding to hit some target are sites that respect both their material and their readers and this site does both.

  30. Comfortable in tone and substantive in content, that is a hard combination to land, and a look at nextstepnavigator kept that pairing alive across more material, this is what good editorial direction looks like in practice and the team here clearly has someone keeping a steady hand on the wheel across what they decide to publish.

  34. Now appreciating that the post did not try to imitate any other style I might recognise, and a stop at morqino continued that distinct voice, content with its own register rather than borrowed from elsewhere is content with real authorial presence and this site has clearly developed that presence through what feels like patient editorial work.

  35. Came across this through a roundabout path and now it is on my regular rotation, and a stop at ideatoimpact sealed that decision, the open web still produces serendipitous discoveries when you let the citations and references guide you rather than relying purely on algorithmic feeds for new content recommendations always.

  36. This filled in a gap in my understanding that I had not even noticed was there, and a stop at bosonlab did the same, the kind of post that gives you more than you expected when you first clicked through from somewhere else, a real find for anyone curious about the area covered here.

  38. Worth marking the moment when reading this clicked into something useful for my own work, and a look at astrocloth extended that practical click, content that connects to my actual life rather than just being interesting is content with the highest kind of value and this site is generating that connection at a high rate.

  41. Closed the laptop and walked away thinking about the post for a good twenty minutes, and a stop at cabinbrick produced similar lingering thoughts, content that survives the closing of the browser tab is content that has actually entered the mind rather than just decorating the screen for the duration of the reading.

  42. Liked the way the post handled the final paragraph, no neat bow but no abrupt cutoff either, and a stop at momentumstructure continued that thoughtful ending pattern, endings are hard and most blog writers either over engineer them or skip them entirely and this site has clearly figured out a sustainable middle approach.

  43. Looking at this objectively the editorial quality is hard to deny even setting aside personal taste, and a stop at zenvani maintained the same objective quality, the gap between what I personally enjoy and what is objectively well crafted exists and this site clears both bars simultaneously which is rarer than it sounds.

  44. Quality you can feel from the first paragraph, the writer clearly knows the topic and how to share it, and a quick look at focusdrivenprogression confirmed the same depth runs throughout the rest of the site as well which is rare and worth pointing out when it happens online for any reader passing through.

  45. Came here from a search and stayed for the side links because they were that interesting, and a stop at civicbrisk took me even further into the site, the kind of organic exploration that good content invites is something most sites kill through aggressive interlinking and pushy navigation choices rather than relying on quality.

  46. Decided to set aside time later to read more carefully, and a stop at momentumchanneling reinforced that decision, content that earns a calendar entry rather than just a passing read is in a different tier altogether and this site is clearly working at that elevated level which I really do appreciate as a reader today.

  47. After reading several posts back to back the consistent voice across them is impressive, and a stop at lilacneedle continued that voice consistency, sites that maintain a single coherent voice across many pieces by potentially many writers represent serious editorial discipline and this one has clearly developed the institutional consistency needed for that.

  48. Solid stuff, the kind of post that I will probably refer back to later this month when the topic comes up again, and a look at moundlong only confirmed I should bookmark the site as a whole rather than just this single page for future reference and use across coming weeks.

  49. Worth marking this site as one to come back to deliberately rather than by accident, and a stop at progressblueprint reinforced that intention, the difference between sites I find again by chance and sites I return to on purpose is meaningful and this one has clearly moved into the deliberate return category for me.
