 Re: Fucking correct.
'bout motherfuckin' time.
Perfect headline includes beasts, rampage, and deadly. This is possibly the greatest headline ever.

 Re: Fucking correct.
Seriously, like normal cliche news-headlining form would prescribe what, something like "Wild Elephants Terrorize Town" or "Local Authorities Subdue Loose Elephant"
These champions however:
"BEASTS LAUNCH WAAAARRRR(!) ON MANKIND(!!!) WITH DEADLY ELEPHANT RAMMMMMMPAGE!!!!!!!"
WE'LL SELL YOU THE WHOLE SEAT. BUT YOU'LL ONLY NEED THE EDGE!
ROAR!
It is just perfect. All newsfolks should take heed.

 Re: Fucking correct.
I should add, that i don't know exactly what kind of website that is, but that i found myself directed there by what is actually a legitimate serious local news source:  I mean, it is clearly not their own content, but just the same, it is hilarious within the context of being placed directly next to, like, actual serious/normal news headlines.

 Re: Fucking correct.
Another hilarious news-based development, the user generated report(which is straight up linked from CNN's frontpage, lending it that extra "serious news report" zazz) : Armadillo Desperate For Water!

Elephants just know how to party is all.

 Re: Fucking correct.
I wasn't able to watch the vid. But Chris... Rampaging murdering elephants is always serious news.

 Re: Fucking correct.
Cows: slow and stupid enough that primitive peoples could build fences around them and they'd be none the wiser. The largest prey animal I can think of off the top of my head. Not as cool (read: mean) as buffaloes. Their primary evolutionary advantage seems to be being tasty, which is not much of an advantage, all told.
Elephants have them beat on every level. If you need a sacred animal, they're up there. I mean, we don't have mammoths or sabre-toothed cats or gigantopithicuses or baluchitheriums or allosauruses or dimetrodons or the like anymore, so if you gotta has a sacred something I suppose they make the cut. They're smart, they're gigantic, they can break things, and they have awesome noses. What's not to like? Oh, and tusks, which are like horns or antlers, but not quite the same.

 Re: Fucking correct.
I am not 100% sure what CNN is trying to get all of us ready for, but it seems... interesting:

 Re: Fucking correct.
Guilt?
A useful article would be, "Handling the body after you kill someone"
