Just got an email about "Saving the elephants of Botswana"

"We’re also studying elephant vocalization, so we can start communicating with the animals about where and where not to go." - Dr Kate Evans, founder of the charity Elephants in Africa

Do you think Dr. Kate Evans really believes that or she is just trying to get stupid people to donate? Probably doesn't matter.

Steve,

Send her an email asking for donations to help thin the overpopulating Elephant herds of Botswana.

Then ask her if she can tell you where they said they would be on a specific date.

Brett

hmmm... how would you say

"I am a big hot and horny sexy cow who wants a special relationship with the right ele, only big tusked males need respond"

Or maybe "Only tuskless cows"

"Dear Dr. Evans:

I read your highly interesting article on elephant vocalizations and the hope of one day using similar vocalizations to influence elephant behaviour to their betterment.

I am currently working on a study amongst humans whereby we have been successful at transmitting thought pseudo-telepathically using wi-fi technology. In fact, I'd like to involve you in the study if you'd humour me. Just stare into your laptop screen, let the wi-fi radio waves wash over your head and concentrate on the two-word phrase I am saying to you over and over in my mind.

Wishing you all good luck in the successful reception of my message,

Yours,

Dr. Phil O. Crapola

Has anyone recorded the vocalisations of a bull when 500 grains passes through its cranium??

sounds something like shiiiiiiiiiiitttt.

Now that was funny. Two days before I went on a very successful brown bear hunt to Alaska, I took my wife to Colonial Williamsburg (a pretty good trade). The Queen of England was visiting and there were all these protestors about the bear hats her guards wear. I took this picture

which is now hanging on the outfitter's wall (I am the less hairy one in the middle)right next to this picture with my 10' 2" brownie. I am the less hairy one on top.
