5/30/2003: Baby elephants
After the dead elephant photo from a few days ago, the usual haunts for news images turned up not one, not two, but THREE baby elephant photos. I felt this was somehow karmic and so I've saved them all for today in a happy Friday celebration. The first one, above, is named Mongu and she's standing next to momma Tonga. They are in Vienna where Mongu is the second baby phant born in the last two years. This un-named calf was born at Disney's Animal Kingdom; he's 296 pounds at birth. Good gawd. And this one is also un-named, weighing in at 275 pounds at birth at the Toledo Zoo. |

The last one is looking at <b>something</b> interesting (or scary).

2 years in the womb then 6 or 7 feet to the ground. No wonder he looks stunned.

Women are like elephants to me: I like to look at them, but wouldn't want to own one. - W. C. Fields
Not that I'm ageeing with him... Just passing on the quote... See? Elephants are in the pic! It's relevant!
