Gambian/African pouched rats are amazing animals. They are smart, large and can be great companions. They are even being trained to detect mines to help the human race. These animals were banned in the US completely, but recently a few years ago the ban was lifted, however it is still illegal to import these creatures from the UK to the US! There are no breeders of the intelligent mammals in the US, making it completely impossible for anyone here to get these amazing animals. We want the import ban to be lifted!!!
