Russian scientists back in 1940 reanimates a dog heart and lungs to function out side of the body. They even keep a dog's head alive. Video shows what looks like an isolated eskie dog head responding to touch, licking it's nose, moving its ears. In my opinion, it was staged as part of the cold war efforts against the US. The dog was probably fine. It is very cool to see the lungs expand and collapsing out side of the body.Russian scientists successfully reanimate dead dog's head (1940).
