A young man in India noticed an elephant limping. Afraid of the mighty beast, yet filled with compassion, the young man examined the elephant's foot and removed a large thorn. The elephant gazed down at the man, roared the elephant roar, swished his trunk twice, and turned and walked away.

The man was forever changed by the beauty of this moment, knowing he could have been trampled and hurt.

Years later, the man had his son at the zoo. They stopped at the elephant enclosure. A large, older elephant walked over to the fence. He looked down at the man, gazing into his eyes, roared the elephant roar, and swished his trunk twice.

The man's eyes welled with tears. It had to be the elephant he had helped oh so many years ago. Overcome by emotion, the man scaled the elephant fence wanting to be near this creature that had meant so much in his life.

The elephant, with his trunk, picked the man up and violently smashed him against the fence. The man died instantly.

Probably not the same elephant, then.
