He's Cricetomys gambianus. King of the Superorder of Muroidea. These guys are supposed to be nocturnal so it is interesting they do well working sniffing out bombs in bright daylight.

Magwa is awesome. I love the way they honor the animals,help poor people get thier pets vet care and do so much good for animals and our bonds with them..

I'm tearing up.

This type of thing should happen all over the world.

Animals are heros everyday.

Othello my cat saved my life when I was in a stupor from undiagnosed diabeties.

He's my hero and I adore him.
