Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for February 10, 2016

Doesn’t Ape sound a bit like Hebrew? I should have paid more attention in class…

Never could figure out how Tantor knows ape talk.

A human would fatally bleed out if a spear like that was removed without having a doctor near to quickly repair such a deep puncture wound.

Maybe not fatally bleed from a sliver in the nose, but a Tantor – sized tube of Polysporin could help.

Uh-oh. Tarzan’s starting to talk in the third person.

This needs to be done VERY delicately if one doesn’t want a sudden trunk swat in a tender spot.

An elephant’s trunk is made up mostly of muscle tissue therefore it would not bleed a lot from a spear wound. The rumblings of the elephants reflect contintment in their communication, much like cats purr. :)> TarzanGoodFriendToTantorsAGowa!!

Hopefully, Tantor has loosened the spear a bit in an effort to remove it. so Tarzan can remove it with minimal pain. Hopefully the person who threw the spear is now a ground meat AGowaPatty.

So now they get to ride on the elephants.

Androcles goes pachyderm.
