Finally a rat maze that serves a purpose!

Umm, technically, if you are found alive by the rat, and rescued by the rat's minions, you're not a victim. You're a survivor.

Rats are also used in mine clearance. They sniff them just like dogs would but unlike dogs they are light enough not to blow the bomb, reducing drastically animal fatality during service.
