Russian soldiers are desperate to protect themselves from Ukrainian drones that are sowing panic among the ranks.
Vladimir Putin’s army is turning to wild animals in a desperate bid to try and counter the threat from Ukrainian drones.
Army chiefs are pondering using wolves to help detect the approach of the deadly UAVS.
Troops say the animals have a good sense of smell, are sociable and active, and can warn of danger in advance.
Russian commanders have decided to run an experiment to see if wolves can make a difference.
Two tamed wolves have been dispatched to Ukraine to serve with a unit that is fighting there.
A Russian news agency reported: “The predators can hear the approach of drones and warn of danger in advance.
“They will help Russian soldiers carry out combat missions in the [war] zone.”
The two females were rescued from the Siberian region of Khakassia and raised by wolf-tamer Aleksandr Konchakov.
In a video, he can be seen feeding ice cream to one of the wolves, called Vysota.
