Elephant Anyone

Elephant Anyone?

When an elephant dies in Zimbabwe, as these photos show, it doesn’t stick around for long. Poverty does some strange things to people and one of the things it does is make them hungry. So when villagers came across this dead elephant they just naturally had to butcher it and take it home to cook and eat. I wonder if it tastes like chicken?
