      For everyone that’s an idiot like me: there’s a fancily-shaped sign (in white) between the elephant and the photographer.

          Even AI slop is better than that. I assumed it was like a kid on gimp who took a pic of an elephant and tried to remove the outside and stick it in a background pic of a store.

    Elephants eat about 350 lbs of veg a day. I bet there isn’t 100 lbs of processed corn foodstuff in the average convenience store.

    If you thought bears were out of control, wait until you see the elephants!

    (surprisingly polite elephant didn’t do much damage)
