Imagine transferring into a unit and a bear just walks by carrying a case of explosives.

Wojtek was deeply beloved and useful in battle. After the war, his unit gave the bear to the Edinburgh Zoo, where he was frequently visited and given treats by Polish veterans for the rest of his life.

He also regularly participated in the Company’s leisure activities - drinking, smoking and wrestling with the soldiers.
