Actually Bison like this were found frozen at different
times by the inmates of the Stalinist Gulags, however
nothing was learned from them because they were
immediately devoured by the discoverers.

Tells you something about the conditions eh.

I understand that when people tried to break out of a gulag, they used the "sandwich" technique. Two hardened inmates would talk a third, less hardier inmate, into escaping with them. That way they had something to eat on their long and arduous escape route.
