Every time the State Fair comes to town, I see people eating elephant ears.

How do you eat an elephant?

Here in the South? Fried and covered in gravy...

“I see people eating elephant ears.”

And bear claws, too?

This is like a family burning their seed corn. One of the few industries Zim has that it can exploit quickly once Mugabe dies is tourism, of which a large elephant population is a vital part. By killing the elephants, they kill the tourism.

How do we know the elephant in question was not killed by a tourist? Tourists routinely donate the meat of their kill to the locals.

Kick whitey off the farms and get elephants to eat instead.
Nice job there Mugabe...we got an African-born leader here now too. There’s plenty of rat meat to sustain us though lest we eat an endangered species like elephants.
