After the Soviet assault of the German Königsberg in the zoo survived only the henot, lama and begemot Hans. And Hans survived not very: 7 injuries. It is easy to get to Behemoth. Zoo technician Vladimir Polonsky saved Hansa and kept a diary:
He accepted treatment for begemot on April 14, 1945. It was the first time I helped with water. Then I tried to give him milk. Next time the cabbage. Beethoven went to eat. But three days later he refused. I rushed to get a vodka. I gave 4 liters. After that, Behemot began to ask for food. I first put the enema (4 liters of distilled water), then started feeding it. Behemot tried to go out, but since he was drunk, he snorted himself... Behemot began to eat, but he did not recover. I put a second enema (4 liters of distilled water). Beethoven was recovering.
Two weeks have passed. Beethoven eats poorly. I decided to give vodka - 4 liters. Beethoven began to eat well. But back came the shutdown. I put another clitoris. Beethoven is fixed,
He eats badly. I decided to give vodka (4 liters), and the begemot began to eat great. There were unpleasant days, I eliminated them by changing meals. He managed to save Behemot without leaving him after 21 days. After 1 month and 19 days I have achieved complete health and now I am engaged in the training of the begemot as riding on the begemot in the park, etc.
