Important work, rescuing dogs from space. We all know what happened to Laika.
Was curious, so, a source

One of the most important space flights ever was Zond 5. Soviets sent the first Earthlings around the Moon and back. They were tortoises.
Did the Soviets let these heroic chelonians retire in grace? No, they were euthanised and dissected. I'm sure they could have gotten the scientific data they needed with less invasive methods.
All astronauts should rescue all space turtles and tortoises they see!
Not really, no. Keep in mind that you have the benefit of these tests to know what the dangers of space are, what they had were theories and what they needed was to know that, for example, zero g didn't have unforeseen effects of internal organs
They wanted to defect.
