How do you eat an elephant?

One bite at a time.

Are you sure the weapons didn’t improve before they ate the elephants.

Just thinking you don’t want to attack an elephant with an inferior weapon.

“When we realized that elephants provide extraordinary fat deposits for humans, we realized that fat provides double the energy of meat without any digestion cost,”

So the true “paleo” diet is not lots of lean protein, but lots and lots of fat!

Well, yeah, smaller animals require smaller, more accurate weapons to hit the target....................

“proposes”

It would be nice if these folks would do something useful with their time and money. Although it might be an interesting proposal, does anyone really care?
Whose life will it change? (Just a bit cynical.)

Today, with the boom in food tech, prey is continuing to get even smaller. Scientists are creating sources of protein, modern-day prey, from cells grown in a lab.

What sort of superweapons will be developed to hunt single cells? I'd think extreme accuracy would be crucial.

“It’s unclear why elephants disappeared around 400,000 years ago, though it was probably a result of climate change…”

Which petroleum-powered vehicles were they driving back then? I thought Fred and Barney just used human power. 🙄

I once shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got into my pajamas I’ll never know.

These researchers are

>>We believe that when they ran out of animals with high amounts of fat, they domesticated animals. We suggest that the transition to agriculture followed the decline of animals for prey.”

In other words, they were driven out of the Garden of Eden.

There was a time when we pretty much ate anything with a heartbeat, right after we killed it. That still happens in China to this day... And after they run out of meat, that’s when things will get bad.

My high school English teacher had a saying on her chalkboard.

“You can eat an elephant if you chew slowly enough. “

Weird that its my first thought, 40 years later.

I wonder how elephants taste.
