A huge statue was just built in Cambodia to celebrate an amazing rat named Magawa who used his super powerful nose to find over 100 hidden landmines [bombs buried underground] and explosives that could hurt people. Magawa was a real hero who helped make his country safer, and now people will never forget what this incredible rodent did. Who knew that a rat could be braver than many humans?
