A Russian tourist who was gored while allegedly trying to rape a cow after his girlfriend dumped him now faces being drafted to fight for Putin against Ukraine.
Evgenii Kuvshinov, 26, is said to have stripped naked and approached a male bull before turning his attention to a female tied to a wooden fence in a field in Thailand last week.
He allegedly tried to mount the cow but she reacted violently, pinning him to the ground and goring him.
Kuvshinov, who was arrested and taken to hospital by police, now risks being returned to Russia in disgrace.
However, new details have emerged about the lovelorn Kuvshinov, a marketing specialist in the beauty industry, following last week’s shocking incident.
Evgenii Kuvshinov, 26, is said to have stripped naked and approached a male bull before turning his attention to a female tied to a wooden fence.

Police and paramedics arrived at the scene and carried the Russian away on a stretcher.
He has reportedly lived outside Russia since Putin launched his war on Ukraine, except for a few weeks, in an apparent attempt to avoid being drafted into the war.
Apparently well off thanks to his own business ventures, Kuvshinov left Russia for Antalya, Turkey, in 2022, and then lived and worked in Dubai before moving to Thailand in May this year.
But his ex-girlfriend blocked him on social media earlier this year and he tried to enlist the help of Putin and Donald Trump to win her back.
Kuvshinov had been dating a Casablanca-born stewardess for a major international airline and was distraught at losing her.
In a message to the Russian dictator, he appeared to say he was willing to enlist in the army if he could be with her again.
“Tell Putin that I am ready for any task. I need it,” he wrote.
He now faces the real prospect of being recruited into Putin’s war machine after returning to Russia.
Kuvshinov, from the Saratov region, also posted a bizarre message seeking help from Donald Trump, saying the flight attendant was now based in the United States.
“Mr. Trump, please give me back my girlfriend,” he said.

Police and paramedics detain Russian tourist in Thailand camp
Kuvshinov appeared in a publication alongside a Thai general, and is often seen in expensive cars and impressive villas.
He was also seen with popular Russian blogger and journalist Ilya Varlamov.
Concerned neighbors alerted police when they saw Kuvshinov wandering around naked and apparently doing something naughty.
They also heard his cries for help as they were being attacked and stood by him as they waited for officers to arrive.
Shocking footage shows Kuvshinov lying on the ground without clothes as the brown cow attacks him.
Police and paramedics arrived at the scene and carried the Russian away on a stretcher.
He was taken to Bannaderm Hospital for treatment of wounds to his bottom and abrasions all over his body.
A paramedic from the Ban Na Doem Foundation who treated Kuvshinov said they suspected he had been trying to have sex with the cow.

Kuvshinov had been dating a Casablanca-born stewardess for a major international airline and was distraught about losing her.
They said: “We found cannabis in his car, so maybe he was high. The way we found him, his actions suggest he was trying to do something dirty with the cow, that he was trying to have sex with it.”
Police Lieutenant Thongchai Chaikit of Ban Na Doem Kuvshinov Police Station said they received reports of a foreign man in an “altercation” with a cow on August 15 at 5:40 p.m.
The officer said the cow attacked the suspect as he tried to restrain it by holding its head and that he was “lucky that the rescue team arrived to save him.”
Police Lieutenant Thongchai added: “When we arrived at the scene, the suspect was being attacked by the cow. Witnesses said he first went towards a male and then towards the female and tried to climb on top of it.
“It’s possible he was trying to make love to the cow, but we can’t say for sure. There was no semen in her.
‘He kept walking and speaking Russian without any sense. He didn’t smell of alcohol. There was marijuana in his car and his passport was torn up.
‘We sent him to the hospital because he hurt his butt, but he went crazy in the hospital and the doctors wouldn’t admit him, so now he’s detained in our police station.
“Now we are waiting for the tourist police and immigration police to work on it, then we can conduct the investigation.”
