Yeah, funny headline... but also, did you read the article? I can't believe how moronic the very last statement was. They know the baby elephant died from an infection she contracted at that zoo, from one of the other elephants at that zoo, possibly the mother, and yet still want to artificially inseminate the mother to try for another baby that could very well die the same way for the same reason - and this doctor basically says, "well if you are against that, then you are against any elephants mating anywhere, even in the wild."
