Elephants and booze do not mix - or which khukuri would you want to tackle Dumbo

No doubt!!!

Actually, here is how you kill an elephant with a spear:

Place some logs across n elephant trail and hide behind a tree next to the obstacle. When the elephant comes, he will have to raise his front legs pretty high to get over the obstacle. When his leg come up, thrust your spear into his armpit as deeply as it will go and run your ass off.
The armpit is a very vulnerable area (on humans too) and the heart and lungs are easy to reach. Humans have been killing elephants with spears in this way for thousands of years.

Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.
GI JOE!
 
That story also has links to a story about drunken elephants knocking over a power line, then catching the line with their trunks. 4 ( elephants ) died.

I loved it. Drunks pay the price!
 
In one of his books, Capstick mentioned that the elephant's digestive track is so long that berries and such can ferment and cause the animals to get drunk. Maybe these elephants are just chasing the dragon.

Are these wild elephants or "domesticated" ones?

There are no bad elephants, just bad elephant owners. :rolleyes:

No, it's not.

When the young virgins that trod the grapes for wine grow up into large lusty women they are sent to work the elephant vats.

You got no idea how badly I've just been tempted.... :D
 
That used to be a battle strategy...an army would get an elephant royally drunk and have it charge the enemy. Only problem was that if the elephant was ever turned around, it would stampede those who sent it against the enemy in the first place.
