Boy that's for sure! You also don't expect to see a guy shooting an elephant
on TV. Also strange was that the guy was using an archaic Winchester
repeating rifle to kill the beast. The whole scene traumatized the state.
The worst thing was that it must have taken a while to kill the elephant.
It's a horrible thing to kill an animal by repeatedly shooting it. The job
took 86 bullets.
