Saw something about how elephants are evolving to not grow tusks.

Hey hey, slow down, I only have so much content.  Don't blow the load unless you're going to mop it.

Good.  These poachers and anyone involved in the ivory trade are vile human beings.  I'm all for animal revenge but we should have never gotten to this point.  There used to be 750K-1m elephants minding their own business, raising tremendous children, and thoroughly enjoying their lives and families.  They have experienced incalculable anxiety and suffering and it's not right.  I've been privileged to go to Kruger and a sanctuary in Chiang Mai, Thailand as well.  These rangers are heroes and are doing all they can to save these wonderful animals.

As far as evolving to go tuskless this is a sad truth in Mozambique.  Rangers 10 yrs ago told us  there were under 75 Bull elephants (Big Tuskers) left.  It's incredibly sad and I feel strongly that more should be done to punish those involved severely.  I actually think it's one of the few issues in the world both political parties agree about and we should come together and do something immediately.

I thought this was a stretch for a sequel, but damn if Hanks and Ryan didn't pull it off!

Quick plug for anyone who took the time to click on this thread - go check out the Sheldrick Trust on your social media of choice. The work they do, and the inside look they provide into the advanced social dynamics of elephants, is nothing short of magical. Worth adding to your end of year giving list.

Smoked elephant chops pair well with Pinot.   I like adding a lite coating of the bourbon glaze from the Barrel Room in Fish Creek.

My guess is you have never noticed that elephant's ears are shaped like a heart.  Very disappointed in you Tower.  They are amazing and special creatures.

Elephant ears are a deep fried, cinnamon and sugar covered pastry.   Jokes fly past you like Drax.


Turns out they are a Midwestern thing.

Naaah, thats the filler our mothers used when they were running short on ground elephant.

 What I prefer is ground elephant as a basis for chili. It’s the same stuff Real Chili uses except I use meatier elephant and far less grease.

Animals eating other animals.  The horror.

Think of the cruelty when a walleye eats a night crawler. When a young bear climbs up a tree and eats a nest full of baby Cardinals. 

The horror.

Never heard of a young bear eating Cardinals. Heard there was a flock of Cardinals that hauled off and mauled a family of baby bears and sent them into a forever hibernation!

Especially elephants.

Stewardship and conservation are very important.  So is correct raising of livestock.

On your elephant topic, there are parts of the world where they are scarce and need protection. There are other parts where they are a scourge, and need to be hunted. Local villages benefit greatly, and nothing goes to waste. Kinda like Nakee ‘Mericans and buffalo.

Perhaps, had them all the time in Ohio.  Baked just right they were slightly crispy on the edges but soft in the middle.

Johnny doesn't know what he's been missing.
