a special training center in tanzania. it's called. mind detection equipment. that. actually traditionally. the most deadly remnants of conflict they're often found years. and serious injury isn't the only problem. imagine how it must feel to live with

a. mind lurking somewhere near your home. to help make the problem of landmines. but it will be a full nine months before he becomes a real pro for now he simply spends his time with his family. it's no coincidence the giant rats were chosen to sniff mines in the wild their extraordinary sense of smell them to search for food buried deep underground it works with. the key is to train the. discovery of t.n.t. with food and that's not difficult because everyone knows how intelligent rats. the really hard part is making sure that the rat doesn't make any mistakes that could be fatal not just for the rat.

rats there it's clear from the way they eat these giant rats have special pouches in their cheeks to steal food just like hamsters so this particular animal is on the cusp between being a rat but. perhaps that's why they're just a little bit cuter. i guess i should add to another really great benefit of our species of rats is that they're really curious which lab rats are curious as well but they are various social in terms of they're really willing to work with people lab rats sometimes will develop that relationship with you but i don't think they develop it quite as readily. meanwhile isaac has grown he's now four weeks old i'm training can begin like all children isaac schooling

starts with a kindergarten. although it is a camera he helps a little rants to feel comfortable around people. to see the defeat into. the. norm we teach the. truth. that's not. interacting with a care or is a vital part of the learning process it's important for isaac's socialization mind sniffing rats mustn't run away from bites people. when he grows up eyes are cool way around a kilo and his body will reach thirty to forty centimeters in length just about as

long as his tail. because they're so big grilled. is a favorite local street food. started at school he spends his early weeks learning the basic rule that means food . is used to reinforce the learned response. was an empty container. this one does contain t.n.t. and the clinic tells him that he can treat. well in general but. they really let her do her thing they don't get involved or train in there in any way but there are the rats has

a different behavior just before they find. they have certain behavior some of them like clean themselves elected groom themselves they're very clean. they don't like to get wet or maybe there's. some of them will walk around in circles some even stand up in the air. so they have no said she's found some think she just has. indicated where. a rat remarkable sense of smell can detect the tiniest traces of t.n.t. . they can sense the explosive even when it's fifteen to twenty centimeters on the ground their nose is all they're not so secret weapon imagine if humans had similar abilities ok if you were in a pitch black room and somebody entered the house. i

would say i think one kilometer away and it's pitch black and you can't hear anything you might be able to detect something changed but that's also very hard for me to say because i really is a scientist i need evidence to support such a claim and i don't happen. isaac and his sister at the gym they can give their paws a good workout sharpen their teeth. but enjoy the freedom. said looks as though isaac's trying to set out on his first trip. nice try. a brief chase. a few

a breath so fresh. and he soon back in the fold. they know what they are doing they know what to expect from. very nor. do we want. to see war. very very very bored. he learned most you have to report. don't they don't understand this so i remember very well the words. and

that's what we are doing here. for about a week these students are only fed the foods that they've given the streaks during training mostly a staple diet of but none of and nuts. during the weekend so little giants are given a veritable feet prepares a mixture of peanuts and dried fish this calorie cocktail is great for their bones these. and it's no feast without dessert. he says. he. says here.

in the wild giant rats live in small underground colonies. they're quite independent within the colony they live in their own burrows and tend not to share food with neighbors. females can choose their own mating partners but the colonies are not matter. they are ruled by a group that works a little like a parliament with both male and female members. it's a big day for isaac. is about to move on to high school. just like every graduate to be he gets his own personal transport.

now. his field training. joint. base sleep. active night lives. try to adjust to the rats biorhythms they said five thirty in the morning a field training session six.

minutes for moments like this that isaac has been trained. by the sound of the engine. here's what people have been saying about redacting. the only show i go out of my way to. really pack the. john oliver of our t. americas. we are apparently better than booth. and see people you never heard of love right back to the night president of the world bank pate. until friday seriously he sent us an email. with need to make this manufacture consent to step into the public well. when the ruling classes

project themselves. with the primary go round lifts only the one percent told. us to ignore middle of the room sit. to learn in the real news is really the world. about your sudden passing i've only just learnt you worry yourself and taken your last wrong turn. you're out caught up to you as we all knew it would i tell you i'm sorry i could so i write these last words in hopes to put to rest these things that i never got off my chest. i remember when we first met my life turned on each breath. but then my feelings started to change you talked about war like it was again still some more fun to feel those that didn't like to question our arc and i secretly

promised to never be like it said one does not leave a funeral the same as one enters the mind it's consumed with death this one quite different i speak to you now because there are no other takers. to claim that mainstream media has met its maker. the nobody off topic there is no marshall in the. islamic states claims it was behind the manchester terror attack by the dutch the north broad so kill the priest every time a terrorist attack happens all these people are out there screaming isis so bad someone needs to do something to go faster. yeah why don't they something. that. has a. dog that's longer. enough that it has.

a challenge in the. title losing china's hafiz whom. i was going to get crowned this girl with the little innocent little show. my conclusion use. to be made to train during this. again. and now you like it the only other one. reason train. so it's not do i man who is telling them. the blank

you have to do does it does and does. he have. did is material enough for deal that he used to dream to young. eyes a grim a coma while using for his class to start. the trust between trainer and ranch run steve. he lets isaac out of the cage. just. without even bothering to follow. it so. they have to concentrate them on to be

a viewer of that day they have to do and make an interpretation of for the writ is doing. would you do when you were telling a. isaac is now demonstrating model behavior by not until. he sniffs at the end. this is the result of several months of training. it looks as though isaac might offend some t.n.t. . he tries to rid his nose of all extraneous said.

he thinks he senses something but needs to reset his smelling operators to be sure . this is the spot. no. consent his signal. it's like watching two old friends getting together. at first but for him. i mean she was not running she was walking. she sniffed everywhere. she. liked

records to steve to t.n.t. he. is a surgeon she wasn't too. t.m.t. . isaac seems to have passed with flying colors. now it's time to evaluate his loyalty. no one wants to chase a runaway rhett across a life minefield that would be deadly that's why it's important that the rats follow their handlers voluntarily without a leash. isaac is displaying textbook behavior as this training is over. now it's time for the real world to

begin. traveling to see. in cambodia. this is home to one of the ancient aka textural wonders of the world. and call it a fact. millions of tourists travel here to take their best selfies tourism is one of cambodia's main sources of revenue. but there are still landmines left

over from the civil war and very seriously hampering any further growth and tourism to say nothing of the danger to life. when it comes to square miles of minefields cambodia is second only to afghanistan . the number of injuries caused by landmines is the highest in the world now though the situation is changing for the better in the popular tourist resorts mines can only be seen in museums but there are still many dangerous areas in the country. isaac is here to help with mine clearance. new instructor applies some screen to his skin. because giant rats and nocturnal creatures their skin isn't

accustomed to high levels of u.v. if they were left unprotected they run the risk of developing skin cancer. ears and tails of the most delicate spots. we didn't see them doing this in africa because the training center was high in the mountains in the town of . at this time of year it's much cooler there than here in cambodia. if we take a closer look at the probables it's raining but isaac still has some screen applied . the sun might come out once the team stops working. this is no drill. team dawn's protective vests and helmets.

no one knows exactly health protection they get would offer. they're off to work. he's not a hundred. but. in the next question it's not bad but these are. international rules that you have to you. know. if if something exploded. in the north being a scottish and down to something explored at least to a course that they don't want an office rather than having nothing. just as we make our way to the minefield it rains again. if we do rains and then. march. march march we think that there is no question of you taking

a minis is going on is not easy for them. that's why when the rains a lot then we don't know what. it doesn't look as though we'll get to see on a second election arrange getting heavier. see . see feel. pretty good. very good. are.

one more try. it's not clear if the rain will get in the way again or not. the mind to take is out in the field after all. isaac is investigating the ground. nothing so far. suddenly he starts to wash his face. this means he's identified a suspicious. the disposal experts approaches. he has been something.

he seems to be really quite relaxed so perhaps it's not a mind off to rule. the mind that's not mine. i thought. it.

was highlighted in yellow. the disposal team has. to work everyone gets a banana. and they all seem to enjoy it. for this moment of triumph now it's time for a rest. real heroes glory true heroes need to rest to build up their strength for their future endeavors. another round of cambodia's mine clearance campaign has come to an end the field engineers have a chance to relax. take

a leaf out of the judge's book then i'd life is almost as exciting as the rats. in. this story of a land mine and. that's all there is to it. that's.

what politicians do. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected . so when you want to be president. or somehow want to. have to go right to press this is what before three in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters about our. candidate donald trump ran a campaign that not only question many foreign policy board the doxies but also lashed out against neo conservative views the world today the president just surrounded by men in uniform some are calling this a soft coup. eighteen years ago i traveled across the united states exploring america's deadly love affair with a gun if

a bad guy tried to get to one of my family members he would have a better a lot better and i think they are and hurting when i buy my babies says my book was published in the year two thousand more than hoffa million americans have been killed by forums in the us we had a thought yes i did yes this is a middle school we go through drills and we put ourselves in real scenarios it was interest same to see who actually got hit by the pain. i just saw it had to return to the subject to track down each gun owner who i'd met and photographed those years ago i don't know that but we are not. serious paradoxical the. reason was a situation like israel and palestine is not a country where i meet

a lot of people without hope although everybody agrees. is a very serious situation people have been much more than in any other active conflict today. credit is one of the basic instruments to drive an economy but it can also lead to tragedy i did. the whole gist i can be and the death star game and it was far enough down. many lives have been broken excessive to the banks gone through to. be. reversed i didn't think of. people see you know the future about face and how you know you become ill. your

relationship breaks down you become a casualty. not sure. if you're more skilled or. downplays the importance of the latest sanctions against north korea after they were adopted unanimously by the un security council not a big deal those sanctions are nothing compared to what ultimately will have to happen. nationwide protests in france turn violent as people throw project. over.
