Another magnificent sight. I've read man has worked with elephants for 5,000 years. I hope moments like this never go away.

What a sight this would have been when war elephants lined up back in ancient times. The enemy wouldn't have had a chance. If they didn't get tromped, they probably croaked from cardiac arrest.

Your mention of war elephants

reminded me of Rex's war bulls

clearing hoodlums from a lot

in Bridgeport swinging chain

It was all elbows & assholes

There were no return visits

Okie Carr had a similar story (which he told with glee) of sending elephants out swinging chains into a group of unruly locals in the dusty little desert town of Las Vegas, New Mexico. It achieved the desired result!
