This year the U.S. has experienced devastating natural disasters.
Outbreaks of tornadoes leveled entire neighborhoods.
Flooding trapped people in their homes.
Wildfires burned out of control.
When people go missing during these catastrophes, it’s a race against time to find them alive – or their remains.
That crucial search is often carried out by specially trained dogs.
FEMA has 280 certified detection dogs trained to find people in disasters. Another 80 dogs are trained to search for human remains.
NPR’s Scott Detrow visits a Maryland training facility where dogs, and their handlers, learn skills that could save lives.
An Instructor Poses An Inquiry About The Human Body And One Understudy’s Reaction Is Clever.
An educator asked her sixth grade class: “Who can perceive me, which human organ becomes multiple times greater when it’s invigorated?”
Maria stood up, dazzling red and furious, and said “How might you pose such an inquiry? I’m telling my folks and they will get you terminated!”
The educator was stunned by the eruption, yet chose to disregard it. She asked the class once more, “Who can perceive me, which human organ becomes multiple times greater when it’s animated?”
This time Thomas answered, “The response is the iris in the natural eye.”
“Awesome, Thomas. Much obliged to you,” answered the instructor who then, at that point, turned her look on Maria.
“Maria, I want to let you know three things. To begin with, you clearly have not gotten your work done. Second, you have a grimy brain. What’s more, third, I dread that one day you will be extremely, disheartened.”
