“A world without elephants!”

How many times this month have you thought about elephants?

Don’t know anything about that but sounds interesting.

I just viewed a commercial and thought I’d test their claim of “Unimaginable” by seeing how often you folks think about elephants. lol

I think of them fairly often, would love to see a herd of African Elephants in the wild. With the rate the world population is growing I imagine large free roaming herds will largely disappear in our lifetime

Fortunately I was able to get my kids to see one of the last Ringling Brothers circuses that had elephants. Its been about 8-9 years ago. The peta people were in full force outside explaining how they train elephants by beating them. I explained to her I'd beat the elephant as well if it didn't do as I told it. As Yosimite Sam once said "I's hates pachyderms."

The only time I think of elephants and hippos is when I go in Walmart and see those fatties with tatoos.

Since peta made all the circuses, shows and most small zoos kill off their elephants, by making them a cash liability, a world without elephants would not effect most Americans at all.

Elephant populations are booming thanks to the proceeds from controlled hunts. Since peta is stopping the hunts that pay communities to have elephants around, the elephant population has no place to go but down.

peta is the one responsible for less elephants.

It seems like her level of respect went way up when she correlated I hunt to being the same as a professional hunter. I'm assuming she lived in a village that often benefits from donated meat and jobs with Hunting guided.

It was obvious she juts came over and had not been told talking about how Dumbo and Simba tast with guest and their kids while watching animals from an observation platform was off limits.

Saw wild ele’s on my buff hunting trip to Zimbabwe. Two different groups for a total of almost 20 different individuals. Would like to hunt one someday. One thing all non hunters never think about is all the elephants in the world will one day die. Just like every deer, mosquito and you and me. Actually came across an ele carcass over there that had died of natural causes.

I really don't think about them much, but would hate to see them extinct.
