Got this from my dad:


Amazing

In 1972, Joe Miller was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from Tulsa
Junior College .


On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing
with one leg raised in the air.
The elephant seemed distressed, so Joe approached it very carefully. He got
down on one knee,
inspected the elephants foot, and found a large piece of wood deeply
embedded in it.
As carefully and as gently as he could, Joe worked the wood out with his
knife,
after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot.


The elephant turned to Joe, and with a rather curious look on its face,
stared at him for
several tense moments. Joe stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being
trampled.
Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away.
Joe never forgot that elephant or the events of that day.


Thirty years later, Joe was walking through the Tulsa Zoo with his family.
As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and
walked over to near where
Joe and his family were standing. The large bull elephant stared at Joe,
lifted its front foot
off the ground, then put it down. The elephant did that several times then
trumpeted loudly,
all the while staring at the man.


Remembering the encounter in 1972, Joe could not help wondering if this
was the same elephant.
Joe summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing, and made his way
into the enclosure.
He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder.
The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of
Joe's legs and slammed him against the railing, killing him instantly.


Probably wasn't the same elephant.


This is for everyone who sends me those heart-warming bullshit stories.

I wrote a poem about you; and it isn't flattering.
Seriously, even if it was, don't fucking climb into an animal cage! They have those fences for a reason! Dx

i think my brother climbed into one of the cages when he took my nephew to the zoo last time. I think Adian had dropped his shoe or something. He had a stranger stand watch for him.

I always wanted to set the animals free and laugh at the people getting trampled.

That and steal the monkeys.
