#PeoplesHistory | Today, we remember the Greek stray dog who became famous for facing the riot police during the Anti-Austerity Protests in Greece Between May 2010 and October 2012.

The protester dog would often be seen protecting protesters and facing off with riot police in the middle of tear gas clouds. He became a symbol of resistance.

Loukanikos, who was around ten years old, died peacefully in 2014 after retiring from the protests. It's believed that he died from complications because of inhaling too much tear gas.
