The rescue effort was admirable, but I'm surprised they could not get a backhoe or similar piece of equipment to the site. | |||

My hats of to Len and the guys. If anyone would know how dangerous a task it was it would be him. Reading some of the comments made me sick. Sometimes I cant believe how stupid people really can be. I have walked in the foot prints of the elephant, listened to lion roar and met the buffalo on his turf. I shall never be the same. | |||

I feel for those men. The decision to end a life after desperately struggling to save that life is a hard thing. Ask anyone who has been there with an old dog or horse who has served them faithfully for many years. I believe God uses these heartbreaking times to help us learn that life is precious, and our ability to influence life of death and indeed even choose life or death is a gift that we should respect with great carefulness. The older I get the more introspective I become because of my understanding as expressed above. I think of the wastefulness of my youth with some regret. Glad to be forgiven.

Is this the Len Taylor who is a PH for Chifuti Safaris? My hat is off to these people who risked life and limb to save an animal. | |||

Len is one of the finest elephant hunters in all of Africa, yet here he is trying to save this life at risk to himself. Another example of a true hunter\conservationist. Also an example of a very fine man in action, doing the right thing. Proud to call that man a friend. Well done Len, you gave it your very best! Dave Fulson | |||

Sad. It's been going on for millennia. It was sad then too. Cheers to the people who tried to help. | |||
