Snoopy: I won't ever go to a circus. Elephants are amazingly beautiful intelligent animals, and are not meant to be performing silly tricks.

I have read that elephants can't possibly be trained the way we train dogs. What I was reading, said that the only way to "train" an elephant is to totally break their spirit and make them fear NOT doing what you want them to do. (I don't know how true that is, as it was a PETA article which could of course be exaggerated)

It is probably a little sick, but I actually get a little joyful when I hear of elephants finally having enough and attacking people. That is probably misguided, I suppose, because they probably get killed after doing that

I absolutely LOVE elephants..
