In Germany  a herd of eight wisents was released into nature in April 2013.
The wisent shown here is living with some more in the “Wildpark Weilburg”.
Up to now there are 500 Wisents  living in several wild parks in Germany.

This picture was taken during German Army training march,
where the soldiers are faced with different and randomized types of combat situations.
The situation here was this, grenade impact (terrible loud), finding a wounded person,
giving first aid, controlled by two military physicians, who had to score the work.
So it looks more cruel than it was, I took the picture in the moment
she (medical staff sergeant) was acting to collapse.
