Heres where the first hand off occured: It was handed off to Jim Z. Now watch as Jim Z. realized that and tries to give the ball to somebody else. LOL.

Wade....What makes you think the bulging sides tipped me off????......Jim Zajicek

Buckles, I would hardly consider myself a Scholar....My anatomy Expertise..is limited to "Does it have "2-Heads or extra Legs?" after that qute frankly...I make it up on the Fly.......Jim Zajicek

Obviously..I walked into the wrong room....I will now use the lessons I learned at Professor Ridge's School of Dance...and do a soft shoe back over to the "Truck and Trailer" section....Jim Zajicek

Buckles and Jim Z.,
I would have used "rupture", but I stayed with "prolapse" as it was Jim Z's word. Prolapses tend to be used in reference to a uterus, after a birth.
Jim Z. assuming that the elephant had not given birth, again was it a vitamin deficiency that caused the same "malady" as the "beak deal?" Or the ribs?
Wade Burck -
Vitamin deficiency? Larger herds indoors, small herds on mudshows?
I obviously walked into the wrong class room as well Zych, here wanna check out the latest issue of National Enquirer chock full of the same kinda facts.... - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- These two posts were allowed to run, so that the ball could be lateraled back to Jim Z. who had already left for the locker room. LOL

Buckles and John Herriott,
Let me try to run this again, as John Herriot raised the issue initially.
Pairs or a herd of elephants stabled on the same substrate for their whole lives, display the malady, and the one they stood beside their whole life does not? It may be a "behavioral affliction", as it has been noted in studies that a large percentage of elephants with "paralyzed beaks" display or have displayed adverse behavior, such as running, unwillingness, slugging, attacking.
Wade Burck - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- For some reason, the above post was allowed to run after being censored earlier. The only change the second time was it was addressed to both Buckles and John Herriott, and the word unwillingness was used instead of belligerent. Not only have we learned the difference between "unseemly" and "fetching", which many people have asked about, but we can now see where there was an opportunity to reverse the ball to John Herriott, who started this thing. There was no other option, Jim Z. was driving out of the stadium parking lot. LOL

I'll turn it over to the Colonel. I lost this one at "behavioral affliction".
Stay tuned, well see where it goes now that Herriott has the ball

Elephants with "limited" Beaks when Vitamin E is added to their diet can sometimes gain more movement....I too believe lack of vitamins is the main cause...Jim Zajicek (Limited Myself)
Jim Z,
Does a vitamin deficiency also cause the "prolapse" that you noted or the bulging sides?
Wade Burck
Being unfamiliar with the word "prolapse" I will conclude by saying, "Behold the elephant! Big ears, Big feet, Tail on both ends".
Which is about the extent of my anatomic knowledge.
