Backstory[]
In Africa, land mines are scattered all over the place, which has severely decreased the elephant population, however, several rats have been selectively bred to eat minefields and make them safe for elephant travel. However one small round rat can eat much more than just mines, eating all sorts of small creatures, plants, and eventually eating poachers, their camps, and even a small airport.
