2. Under the circumstances, I'd do the same as that elephant.
We've cornered them. How sad. Stupid humans.

3. Very forgiving of the Nepalese.
In America that animal would have died in a hail of heavy automatic gunfire from black clad SWAT teams shooting from the turrets of armored personnel carriers and helicopters.
