Aww, those elephants are cute. The only reason not to give them peanuts is if there’s a peanut shortage. Oh, wait. I think I did hear something about a shortage which is why the price of peanut butter was going up. Oh, well. Maybe hazelnuts will do?
Uh Oh!!

I’ll say there’s a situation. They’re standing like human. Mayhem is bound to break loose. Worst yet, they may become politicians.
