be prepared for the NEXT Meteorite Hunt in Canada With RATS!


Rats Rule, Dogs Left to Drool for Meteorites!
Belgian-trained African Giant Pouched Rats now being used to search for landmines will soon be trained by meteorite hunters to hunt for meteorites, predicts LunarMeteorite*Hunter, Tokyo, Japan. Rats have an acute sense for smell and are extremely accurate in detection; rat "packs" will soon be used to search meteorite strewn fields in Brazil, Slovakia, Canada, the United States and elsewhere, the US and elsewhere (Rats! Alberta prohibited by Law source:RMCA (Rat and Mouse Club of America).
  The Belgians have been working on this technique for years and will be the first to demonstrate in the field. It is rumoured that NASA (USA), JAXA (Japan) and ESA (Europe) are planning rapid response teams of rats for recovery of newly fallen meteorites.
