Rats against Landmines

Off Topic
  • soulmateS

    Hej,

    today I have seen a documentation about the work of giant rats. They are trained to detect landmines and (among other things) Tuberculosis.

    I think this is a great work they are doing and maybe it helps a little, if the work of this organization has the chance to be known by many people.

    A Basenji does not obey to orders, it may listen to proposals.

    @kembe - Very True Kembe, here is a link on looking for a responsible breeder. https://bconc.org/finding-breeders-red-flags There are many scammers out there, don't fall for one.. or a person that is not a responsible breeder.

    @sanjibasenji Thanks for the article on Dog Genome Project - I found it very interesting. I was trying to figure out the interactive Genome wheel. It has the basenji closely related to the Azawakh and rat terrier but I’m still trying to figure out the first wheel which has the basenji listed w/ black/grey starting point. As far as the PBS Dog Tales video - it’s very interesting - it’s season 47 episode 2 - I highly recommend you watch the whole thing (54 minutes).
