elephants? outstanding
Before we moved to Canada some people warned us about bears, thinking that the whole of Canada is over-run with wild animals. Up to now all we have seen is lots of black squirrels and the family of raccoons living in the tree in our front garden (the four babies are getting pretty big now), but this story shows that nature is out there.
Imagine the scene, you are strolling down the street and there is an elephant eating someones tree in their front garden. 'Time to cut back on the booze' you think.
Read all about it here.
This website tells some of the story but this one even has the audio of the call to the police.Which you HAVE GOT to listen to. Like.
