    One time there were 38 elephants. He left out the part where Hannibal failed miserably.

    One time I was 12.6 miles big. One time I was two hours old.

    May the Lord be with you as He is with me.

    Who on Earth doesn’t already know about Hannibal crossing the Alps on elephants?

    War elephants were a thing in more than one country.

    The African pouched rats currently trained to detect land mines are easier to handle than bees.

    The black mamba is the fastest snake.

    Yes, I watch a lot of documentaries.

    They got the picture of the black mamba exactly wrong – the snake is silver in color and the mouth is black.

    the hard part of training those bees is trying to attach leashes around their tiny little necks

    And the least noticed of those elephants was named “Ear.”

    Take care, may mine sniffing bee extraordinaire Zzzt “Bzzazzzo” McZeez be with you, and gesundheit.

    Black mambas aren’t black. They are pale grey. Their mouths are black inside.

    The Romans may have been astonished, but they won anyway in the long run.

    All of the elephants were killed except for his own, the attack wasn’t really successful…

    As long as I can run at 13 mph I’m OK with the snake.

    TierZoo declared the black mamba the most competitive snake. Guess this is one reason.

    Everyone can appreciate that the elephants were tastefully clad in diapers so as not to offend our senses.
