I have a photo of myself and Scott with Samson. It was a strange feeling looking up at an elephant's chin. My daughter felt more comfortable standing back to take the picture. He was BIG.

Buckles....you say "living," does that suggest you've seen a bigger one that was taxidermied?

claimed to be the largest at the

time I saw it years ago
