Tiger resuscitation using the method… lips lips

The baby tiger from Halle in central Germany owes its life to the lightning reaction of a medical student and… mouth-to-mouth breathing. An unusual rescue operation took place in the local zoo. While feeding, A three-month-old tiger has a piece of meat stuck in its esophagus. The animal choked and passed out. The event was watched by a medical student, who visited the zoo with her son. The girl convinced the tiger cub's keepers, that you must act immediately, not wait for the vet to come. Admitted by the staff to the paddock for wild cats, she gave the tiger a heart massage and artificial respiration using the mouth method – usta. The resuscitation took effect. After five minutes, the little tiger regained consciousness.

– I felt like I was kissing a baby – the mother of a one-year-old son later told journalists. As a sign of gratitude, the management of the zoo in Halle named the tiger after the boy – Johann.
