thinking about it is grotesque.

what kind of elmer fudd has a man cave that needs a full mounted bull elephant head on the wall? does the trunk hang to the floor or do they wire it up?

i guess they consider the tusk to be a trophy? ivory is useful in jewelry and musical instruments, but easily replaced by material that we can make without slaughtering some elephant's mother.

what kind of permit would i need to move a frozen siberian mammoth into my dna laboratory. if i build that megafauna petting zoo "they will come."
