Mengele was a German physician who made experiments in the Nazi concentration in Auschwitz to prisoners there. His goal was to try to figure out how to prevent diseases, to see if people could live with five limbs, and to see if he could find a way to make people's hair color change to blond and eye color to blue. It was part of the idea of making the German race a pure and healthy race. Because of this he was nicknamed the Angel of Death.

| Here are twins from the Mangele experiments in Canidodo Gadoi |
After fleeing Germany during World War Two. Josef Mengele arrived at Argentina. Argentina at the point were allies with United States and Great Britain. From Argentina, Israel was on a quest to find Mengele since they knew he was there, because of the previous capture of German Adolf Eichmann. This made Josef to move to a small town in Paraguay named Hohenau. The Israeli group was still in the search to find the physician. So Mengele moved again this time to a small suburb of Sao Paolo, Brazil. He lived here with a Hungarian refugee family.
In the 1960's Mengele was a veterinarian in the Brazilian town called, Canidodo Gadoi. Here Josef performed as more of a doctor that would only work for women who were pregnant. Mengele was still trying to achieve his goal of creating the perfect German race of blond hair and blue eyes. He would see pregnant women and give them new drugs, shots, and potions to try to give the fetuses the blond color hair and blue eyes. Also these drugs will cause women to have twins. So this meant more blond hair and blue eye Aryan children were born.
To this day the small Brazilian town of Canidodo Gadoi has a twin birth rate of every one of eighty births, are twins. At the end of his life in 1979 Mengele had reached his goal.
