It might have been the same elephant.

Call me soft or anything of the sort ......... but I get a little sick thinking of this kind of killing of such a great and ancient creature of God and nature.

By the way, Orwell sure could write.

I'm against killing endangered creatures too...I wonder if there could have been an alternative to its killing.

An easy assignment does not make a sharpshooter any less of a sharpshooter.

I like the "sharpshooters" ref. how "sharp" do you have to be to hit this monster, even at a longer range.

You have to be pretty sharp to drop the beast with one shot, before it charges. Thick bones, thick hide, and a near miss just pisses it off.

Very sharp.

It is not as if you can just shoot them anywhere and they fall over dead. There are a few small areas where you can hit and drop them. They are strong, fast if just wounded they can and will charge and kill you.
