An Elephant Tale
A man was on holiday in Kenya. While he was walking
through the bush, he came across an elephant
standing with one leg raised in the air.
The elephant seemed distressed so the man approached
it very carefully. He got down on one knee and
inspected the elephant's foot. There was a large
thorn deeply embedded in the bottom of the foot.
As carefully and as gently as he could he removed
the thorn and the elephant gingerly put down its
foot. The elephant turned to face the man and stared
at him intently. For a long minute the man stood
frozen - thinking of nothing else but being
trampled. Eventually the elephant trumpeted
loudly, turned and walked away.
For years after, the man remembered the elephant and
the events of that day. One day the man was walking
through the zoo with his son. As they approached the
elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and
walked over to where they are standing at the rail.
It stared at him and the man couldn't help wondering
if this was the same elephant.
After a while it trumpeted loudly, then it continued
to stare at him. The man summoned up his courage,
climbed over the railing and made his way into the
enclosure. He walked right up to the elephant
and stared back in wonder.
Suddenly the elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its
trunk around one of the man's legs and swung him
wildly back and forth along the railing, killing
him.
Probably wasn't the same elephant.
