"HeroRATS: A Nose for Danger" with Cristophe Cox
Episode 136
Tuesday, 28 April, 2026
What if the most powerful weapon against landmines and disease weighed less than three pounds and ran on banana rewards? Meet the HeroRATs.This week, Mark sits down with Christophe Cox — CEO and co-founder of APOPO — to tell the remarkable story of how a wild idea born in Belgium became one of the most innovative humanitarian organizations on the planet. From the organization's scrappy origins to deploying specially trained African giant pouched rats across minefields in Cambodia, Angola, and Mozambique, Christophe shares what it really takes to clear land that's been terrorizing communities for decades.But landmines are just the beginning. These extraordinary animals are also sniffing out tuberculosis in clinics across Africa — catching cases that traditional testing misses — and now being trained for search and rescue and wildlife trafficking detection.It's inspiring, it's eye-opening, and yes, it will make you see rats in a completely different light.ig@ apopo ig@ herorats ig@thefurrealpodcast ig@markakylefb@ apopo fb@ Mark A Kyletik tok@herorats tik tok@ thefurrealpodcast www.apopo.org www.furrealpodcast.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
