We talked to a bunch of elephant experts and none of them has ever seen an elephant jump. Most think it is physiologically impossible for a mature elephant to jump, although baby elephants have been known to do so, if provoked. Not only do mature elephants weigh too much to support landing on all fours, but their legs are designed for strength rather than leaping ability. Mark Grunwald, who has worked with elephants for more than a decade at the Philadelphia Zoo, notes that elephant’s bone structure makes it difficult for them to bend their legs sufficiently to derive enough force to propel the big lugs up. \n\nYet there are a few sightings of elephants jumping in the wild. Veterinarian Judy Provo found two books in her college library that illustrate the discrepancy. S. K. Ettingham’s Elephant lays out the conventional thinking: “… because of its great weight, an elephant cannot jump or even run in the accepted sense since it must keep one foot on the ground at all times.” But an account in J. J. William’s Elephant Bill describes a cow elephant jumping a deep ravine “like a chaser over a brook.” \n\nAnimals that are fast runners or possess great leaping ability have usually evolved these skills as a way of evading attackers. Elephants don’t have any natural predators, according to the San Diego Wild Animal Park’s manager of animals, Alan Rosscroft: “Only men kill elephants. The only other thing that could kill an elephant is a fourteen-ton tiger.” \n\nMost of the experts agree with zoologist Richard Landesman of the University of Vermont that there is little reason for an elephant to jump in its natural habitat. Indeed, Mike Zulak, an elephant curator at the San Diego Zoo, observes that pachyderms are rather awkward walkers, and can lose their balance easily, so they tend to be conservative in their movements. \n\nBut that doesn’t mean that elephants are pushovers. Why bother jumping when you can walk through or around just about everything in your natural habitat? In India, trenching has been the traditional way of trying to control movements of elephants. Veterinarian Myron Hinrichs, of Petaluma, California, notes that the traditional trench has to be at least two meters deep, two meters across at the top, and one and one-half meters across at the bottom to serve as a barrier for elephants: \n\nThat tells us that they can’t or won’t try to jump a distance of 6.5 feet. But these trenches have a high failure rate, for elephants can fill them in, especially in the rainy season, and then walk across the trough they have made. And larger bull elephants can go down through and up even a trench that size. \n\nWhy leap when you can trudge?

It's from episode 105 of South Park - An Elephant Makes Love to a Pig. The song is not actually a Loverboy song. It's just a joke, dude.

Assuming you mean - in general why do elephants testis etc. not hang away from their body.\n\nThe answer is basically because it prevents them from being damaged while walking (being dragged), or from predators leaping up towards the animal.\n\nBecause we stand on two legs we're more readily prepared to fight whatever comes at us from the front.\n\nOther animals on fours have no underbelly protection so they pull in the testis in an adaptive way which basically protects their species ability to reproduce.\n\n\n----\nHope this helps you.\nEnjoy zoology, I hear it's terribly hard.

OK then a question for you.  I want the rooster to be happy.\nOther than throwing it in a lake, how does the cat get WET?

i think you're referring to deer stands and their use.\n\na deer doesn't perceive "threats" from above.  therefore, they would not look up to see incoming problems.\n\ni've seen them look "up" before.  would appear to be beyond the 15 degree mark stated.

Only the Electric Power Company can answer this.\n\nAssuming your inforrmation is correct, and this involves RAIN only, not high wind, it is possible there is an Underground Line that shorts out.\n\nWhatever it is, it sounds like something that can be fixed, but this will only happen if you organize the members of the community and invite the Power Company representative to meet with them and explain why this happens.\n\nMake sure the TV News crews are there.

weather service\n\nAn Indian chief wanted to know what the weather was going to be for the upcoming winter so he called the weather service. They said they expected colder than normal, so the chief told the tribe to collect dead wood to store. A month later the chief called the weather service to get an update, they said for sure it was going to be colder than normal. So the chief told the tribe to cut down any dead trees they could find. A month later, November, the chief called the weather service to get another update. The weather service said, "There is no doubt about it - it is definately going to be colder than normal." The chief asked them how they were so sure. They answered, "Are you kidding? The Indians are collecting fire wood like madmen!"
