Dances with Elephants - A rescue - Update. 10/11/2006

The following is a series of SMS messages I received from the Elephant Man, who is currently out on an elephant rescue trip. I have reproduced the messages verbatim.

11 October 2006, 1703 hours.

We are getting additional .458 rifles strictly for protection. Estimated about 15 adults and 6 small elephants. Plantation owner greedy, raped huge tracts of surrounding jungle, little left for the elephants. The sound of about 20 plus elephants running away from the shots fired in the air akin to 100 horses in a stampede.

Plantation owner screwed us for not getting rid of the poor wild elephants. Not nice to be stepped on during Puasa in the heat of the haze and humid, steamy leftover jungle.

Thank God Kay is supporting us with buka puasa makan and fags. Snark fans, please support us with essential tools, like multi function knives to clean the rifles, and chain shackles plus jungle boots.
