The Los Topos group got its name from the Spanish word "topos," which means moles. This name was chosen because the group's members, who are trained in urban search and rescue operations, often have to dig underground tunnels and passageways like moles to reach and rescue victims trapped in collapsed buildings. The moles' keen sense of navigation and ability to work in confined spaces reflect the skills and dedication of the Los Topos team in their lifesaving mission.
