I think the elephant scored the most points in that round. At least 4 power punches and 3 kicks including a roundhouse kick

6. We get Candian geese here in the summer, and they can be really agressive.

One had gotten separated from his flock and was in the neighborhood several blocks from the river, think he was lost? Anyway, my smart alec husband hissed at the goose as we walked by, that would enough for the goose and the game was on. He started charging us with his neck extended and hissing. Jay threw a rock, geese run away dodging, and we walked on. A few seconds later I hear something and there's that damn goose again, following us, but about a 1/2 block behind. The goose then flies up to my husband and is hissing walking alongside us and getting closer. We saw this neighborhood cat that's our friend and called him joking, come save us! Well, this dude runs up and starts going after the goose. They fought but the cat was determined and the goose turned around and went back the other way. This small cat saved my big husbands' butt by chasing away his tormentor, a kindness he truly didn't deserve. I don't know that I've ever laughed so much in my life.

4. Think the elephant started out playing until the goose flapped him.

Then it got serious. Hope the goose wasn't injured by the kicks.
