Menagerie in Space
Sputnik 5 was launched and sucessfully returned to land.
18 orbits of the Earth with two dogs, 40 mice (maybe a couple more when it landed) and some plants.
All animals were filmed with a motion camera during the flight.

One of the dogs was subsequently stuffed and sent on a world tour.
