I would say the zookeepers must be feeding them bad food if they'd rather eat poop......but then again, the poop would consist of what they were fed in the first place. :confused:

On a side note, I wonder if that elephant would be any good at a nice wholesome game of cornhole.

Elephants do eat their own poop cause their digestive systems dont completely break down the fiber that they eat so they 'redigest' it. It's not surprising.

Sure you may be leaning towards the rational 'redigest' theory but this is probably just elephant abortion or elephant felching. He diddn't use a rubber so he's gotta suck out the fetus and eat it. Or he's a kinky elephant and wants to suck out the 'deposit'. Pie is good.

I was going to say something close to that, but not the same word for word. :p
