If this is true THIS IS FASCINATING

These photos are so vibrant and contemporary.  I hope this isn't just another big hoax thanks to photoshop.   I was always frightened by black & white photos of President Abe Lincoln.  There was something about his bone structure and the shadows that were scary.  This photo makes him handsome even.   Certainly accessible.

I LOVE elephants

Here's why.  This photo is from a great collection on huffington with the most cute photos of animals together.

Elephants mourn

This is a heinous photo of a baby elephant who is mourning its dead mother.   Is that a lion in the background?  And a hyena on the right?

This is hideous.   And this incredibly intelligent and loving creature was slaughtered by mankind.  This was not a kill for food (although the way that lion and hyena are looking, they probably may have had "fast food" for the day).

This was a kill to satiate wretched excessively wealthy people who collect ivory.  This photo breaks my heart.  See article link below.    Also visit my other elephant blog postings, by clicking here.
