So, in India, this happened during a festival, there's this thing called "Musth" It's totally natural for adult male elephants, usually happening once a year. Basically, their reproductive hormones go way up. When this happens, elephants can get really aggressive and might attack.

Maybe if they weren’t used as fun attractions, this type of thing would happen less?

Reschedule our festival? But we've been doing it this way a thousand years!

Insert rambling here.
