Susan killed it, cut off its tail, and held it in the air. “Victory!” she shouted, laughing. “That’s my elephant tail. Way cool.”

And to think humans have long considered themselves superior to other animals.

This whole thing makes me want to hurl. How’s about we lock Wayne in an arena with some elephants and show them the video?

I’m impressed, I didn’t think I could dislike this guy and he comes along to prove he is even more vile than previously thought!
