The african elephant and asian elaphant are indangered google it and it will explain. I know what your saying and 100% hear you.But of all things a elephant???????????????? i boycott those xbows for certain reasons and thats one. Heck any xbow will take down a animal that size just so happens he did it first and i hope hes the last. To what ever elephant they were at to harvest it and feed people good. But shame on that clown[:@]theres alot of animals in the world that can be harvested but its sad to see them do it to animals like an elephant. Kinda like hearing people complain about deer in the city gotta cull them there eatting our plants bla bla bla To freaking bad the citys grow you take an animals home away deal with it so yes i see your point totally its sad and to see people praise excal yes there a nice bow but not that great tokill something like that. But thats my opinion everyones entitled.
