Before Big Al, gets upset and insinuates that I am challenging anybody, I am just posting these two elephant photos borrowed from the "history channel" to see if we can find an answer here. The posted a comment to the above photo which was posted yesterday as well as did Casey:

Buckles,
A dollar says that elephant startles and kicks to get up, that little horse ends up on the roof of the tar paper shack behind, and ole Zeitzy is left holding a halter and lead rope.

I am guessing Mr. Zeitz has already encountered that problem and is now preventing it from happening again by laying what ever that is across the front legs keeping them crossed.
Regarding yesterday's Sells-Floto pix
I was surprised at the comments on the back leg lift, a common trick in the days before Elephant Empresses.This is the same elephant 7 or 8 years later.
I made two comments. One of which was deemed "fetching" and one which didn't make it as it must have been "unseemly":

Buckles,
I still suggest if the elephant startles, he will fly also. Maybe not as far as the lighter weight horse, but he will get air. Oh wait, this might be one of those deals where, "that's weird. He has never done that before."
LOL

Wade,
All this time, I thought you were referring to the actual tv channel! I need to get with-it! Haha :)

Chris,
Are you kidding me? That's why it is hyphenated and not capitalized. All I watch, if I do at all, is RFD-TV and the History Channel.
Wade
Don't feel bad about it Chris - it took me a while too.
Just another example of the way that the Yanks have mangled the language! LOL
Mate,
I don't think we "mangled" it. I suggest we took something that they tried to jamb down our throats, and adjusted it enough that they knew we were Yanks and not Aussies.
