APOPO UK facilitates the training and deployment of African giant pouched rats, known as HeroRATs and technical survey dogs, known as HeroDOGs to save lives. Through the use of innovative animal scent detection techniques for social good, most notably for landmine and tuberculosis detection, people are freed from fear and disease. Other APOPO innovation projects emerging include training the HeroRATs in search and rescue, detecting soil pollutants, and helping to prevent the illegal trafficking of endangered species/animal parts and hardwoods around the globe. APOPO UK (Charity No: 1199007) is the official UK representative partner of APOPO International.
