While Japan is known to have higher than average rates of stomach cancer, the residents of the town of Kaneyama in Yamagata Prefecture appear to be particularly susceptible to the gastric ailment. After a recent report revealed that the municipality had one of the highest stomach cancer fatality rates out of the nation’s 344 “secondary medical districts,” the town officials decided to get its 6,000 residents tested.

- adroit_avimimus3년 이하They are all so cute and cuddly! And they have the heart of a friend, like my dog, Autumn! What I didn't know is that dogs have 300 trillion sensors in their noses! That's a whole lot! And the cost to train a single dog to sniff out the disease is even more insane!! $45,000! But it's definitely worth it to help save the lives of the ill! DOGS ARE THE BEST! ❤
