During World War II, Russians used dogs strapped with explosives to blow up German tanks. They trained the dogs to associate the tanks with food and ended up destroying about 25 German tanks using this method.

By Anonymous 386 Days AgoThey found a disadvantage to this methed when the dogs were more prone to go to the Russian tanks they had trained on instead of the German ones.- By Scalebane 386 Days AgoA similar problem was met by the historical general Hanibal and his elephant troops. The elephants often killed more of their own troops than enemies, but where still a fearsome sight. Just shows that animals shouldnt be used as a weapon ;-)
