In early April 1945, fierce fighting raged in Königsberg. When the city fell, severely wounded hoppo Hans was found in a stream.

🔻According to legend, the soldiers initially wanted to "execute him according to martial law," claiming that this "huge pig" resembled Göring.

🔻However, the command prevented the execution of the "rare animal" and entrusted him to the care of zootechnician Vladimir Petrovich Polonsky.

🔻According to surviving archival data, Hans's treatment began with simple measures: he was given water, milk, and beets. However, due to his declining appetite, Polonsky resorted to an unconventional method – he offered the hippo 4 litres of vodka, which unexpectedly stimulated his appetite. 

🔻Polonsky remained constantly by the animal's side, and after 51 days, Hans had fully recovered.

Managed to save the hippopotamus.  Without leaving him for 21 days, after a month and 19 days, I achieved his complete recovery and am now training the hippopotamus – riding the hippopotamus through the park.

🔻Hans lived in the zoo until 1950, left no offspring, but he remains forever on the emblem of the Kaliningrad Zoo, as a symbol of true human compassion, generosity, and kindness.
