Its kinda funny. I live in the most heavily populated part of Michigan along the I-94 corridor and I’ve been watching a trio of bald eagles fishing in the lake every morning.
Tranquilizer the elephants and take the tusks when they are young. They stay alive and will live fruitful lives.
Worst that will happen is the poor elephant will be made fun of by his peers.
Very cool!
They’ll be where they’ll be, I guess. And where one encounters the Creatures is part of the magic and wonder of Creation.
Sometimes we, the pinnacle of the Creatures, are a little arrogant in our view of how much control we really have over it all.
