That’s how the headline reads.
I wish there was a bit more detail. Did a saucy little Chianti accompany the meal?
Elephants have very large molars; I guess they could grind up bones and large pieces of meat, but it would seem to be difficult. He must have been very angry.
Stampy?
From the OP’s link:
“Let’s see - I believe an early harvest Merlot should go nicely with long pig. Somellier - could you start us out with 30 liters of the '97 Chateau Poopchute?”
That’s one meal the elephant will never forget.
However, this puts the spotlight on the man-elephant conflict, especially in a state that is three-fourths forest.
We should deploy peacekeepers to stem this bloody conflict immediately.
What if other species get involved? This could erupt into gorilla warfare.
I believe the elephant in question had the advantage of being, well, an elephant.
But as the article said, elephants are herbivores. Stomping the guy into goo probably wouldn’t be surprising, but why would he eat the guy?
Because he had a taste for assaulted nuts?
Yeah, they have teeth that are like bricks to grind up tree limbs and hay, not tear up and chew meat.
If you find this disturbing, consider that the thread was begun by a user with the handle carnivorousplant. :eek:
“Whoa-ho, here she comes,
Watch out boy she’ll chew you up…!”
“Wild elephants can pose a threat to voters and poll officials in certain areas during the elections with herds coming down from the hills in search of food and local brew,” said a forest official.
Typical republicans-next their gonna want a blowjob
And the Libertarian elephants: “Why should we pay highway taxes when we make our own damn roads?”
Somewhere, some bookie is probably taking long odds on it being an extremely rare Elephas maximus indicus, Var. Zombificus George Romerous.
Was it doing a slow shambling shuffle? Was it observed to have an unhealed flesh wound prior to the onset of the attack? Was there a dead, vacant look in its eyes? Were the other elephants running away from it in stark terror? Did it emit a foul, pestilent odor (other than ordinary elephantine odors, that is)?
Someone should put in a call Max Brooks… and if anyone cares to take a whack at my improvised Latin [Pig Latin, more likely], please feel free.
Maybe the guy was named Herb.
Oh sure, but the assaulted nuts thing was funny? Don’t hate…appreciate!
Why is this funny?
This should not be funny.
The guy he stomped was from China. It was obvious that the elephant had a preference for seafood, especially crushed Asians.
I’m so sorry.
When an elephant eats a man, that’s not news. Man eats elephant? - That’s news.
Ooh, Chinese food, he’ll want more soon.
