A count on 31 May 1945 revealed only 91 of 3,715 animals had survived, including two lion cubs, two hyenas, Asian bull elephant Siam, hippo bull Knautschke, ten hamadryas baboons, a chimpanzee, and a black stork. After the battle, some animals had escaped, while some of the killed animals were subsequently eaten by Red Army soldiers. An alligator who they named Saturn was also discovered, where he was then transported to a zoo in Moscow. He lived for 75 years until dying at age 84 in May 2020.
