So when will he be up for adoption then? :lol:

i wonder if they thought about gifting it to the auckland zoo since the last one died

yea but mixing the two species was a concern stated by the park...

also im not to sure if the current inclosure is able to house an African Elephant for safety reasons due to them being more none aggressive and bigger in size?

i think you mean the african being more agressive charlie

both species do not mix well

sadly in the end i think some body may end up badly injured

You could put your hand up LivingArt?

maybe all that SPCA money coudl be helpping you out whilst you teriffy teh neighoobours with elephant polo or something?

You could make a fortune onselling the fertilsers...lmao

i saw that elephant up here a year or so ago. he was next to the bmx track when they weren't performing so took my kids to see him. we got close, "wharrrppppp", he let the mean one go. flatulence in elephant proportions so maybe you could also bottle that to run the bbq :lol:

lol

gawd dont let the greennies hear you

Imagine the Fart tax on That!

I’ve discovered the world’s best cure

the elixir of life

It’s elephant manure

to give to the wife.

It’s composed completely

of natural stuff

Just take a ball a day

It’s usually enough

In India it’s found

in piles on the road

A free take-away

No charge for a load

If you prefer your medicine

not round but flat

Get a Taller Elephant

They land with a Splat

If you run out of elixir

give an Elephant some grass

Wait for a while

Eventually it will pass

The amazing thing

about Pachyderms as a species

is not the size of the animal

But the size of its Faeces

Dressed in Pink

Don't you think

When your dressed in Pink

That an Elephant with no nose

would fast decompose.

Well he couldn't eat

No not with his feet.

It would be of no avail

to try and use it's tail

With no trunk to squirm

That large Pachyderm

Would look very lean

or might never have been.!

only one thing to be said

to a man with all those words in his head

Navarre

thanks Nav

big problem though is there is more than one of us in the head

thats great to hear

She certainly deserves it

Know what you mean LA

Roses are red

Violets are blue

I am a Psychopath

and so am I

schizophrenic, no

quadrophenic yes

there is trouble in the prison camp

just do it LA im sure you have the room , mite be weetbix for a few more years though

the elephant has been handled by one person for last 28? yrs

purchased by weber brothers circus 2 yrs ago

their tour just ended so sacked the handler and donated elephant to SPCA

the elephant now has new surroundings and its companion is gone

it is not a good recipe :evil:

i feel for the elephant

is it really an African Elephant? Those are not easy to tame! and no elephant like an upset African elephant!

gosh. I would not be the one to upset it, and if its trainer of 28 years will be separated, that will be one grumpy animal!

don't worry the experts are on it :roll:

you mean the circus?

where is my ROFL icon?

C'mon, you know how lucrative all that poo could be..... 8)

aaahhh the memories

the poems i composed while shovelling that stuff

used to dry them, dent them, then resin them for ashtrays

road apples

Ashtrays????? Where is that ROFL emoticon? :lol:

you mean the circus?

where is my ROFL icon?

no the experts they have called in

the circus had no expertise in handling elephants

only 2 people in nz can handle jumbo

she will probably have a life of controlled captivity

Sad, what a disservice to a magnificent animal.
