I finished reading 'Elephants on Acid' recently and while I still haven't done any acid in my life, I'm starting to trip out on elephant synchronicities turning up in my life at present.
Just like in that You Tube video above where they tell you to try not to think of pink elephants, my mind just seems to be noticing the elephants in the room lately.

Thought to be about 46 years old, she was euthanised in March 2017 following an age-related illness.
Cuddles arrived at the Dubbo Zoo the same year it opened, in 1977.
She was shipped from Britain with two other female African elephants, Yum Yum and Cheri.

"If there is one thing I disapprove of it's the unnatural capture and taming of wild animals, whether an elephant or a bird. To me, the only good cage is an empty cage."
Lawrence Anthony (17 September 1950 – 2 March 2012)
The book that I'm reading right now is 'Evidence of Eternity' and in the chapter 'Animals and Unconditional Love from Heaven',
Mark Anthony writes about Lawrence Anthony and how elephants mourned him at the time of his death in March, 2012.
What is it with March in this post?-)
Mark Anthony writes about Lawrence Anthony and how elephants mourned him at the time of his death in March, 2012.
"Lawrence Anthony died of a heart attack at the age of 61 before his planned March 2012 conservation gala dinner in Durban to raise international awareness for the rhino-poaching crisis and to launch his new book,
Following his death, there were reports that some of the elephants he worked to save came to his family's home in accordance with the way elephants usually mourn the death of one of their own."
