Rumor has it that P. T. Barnum (of Barnum & Bailey circus fame) housed his animals at this ranch during several winters in the late 1880s. Isisfan and I noticed a striking similarity between elephant patties and this cache container.

Elephant poop is very useful- you can even write on it!

An Elephant Conservation Center director has started to make paper out of elephant poo.

"We collect the dung of elephants, we turn it into paper and then products. We then sell the paper and return profits to feeding and caring for the elephants. In addition we provide many jobs to relatives of elephant keepers and low-income families."

Eat more fiber.

Enjoy.

Walked across the middle of the nice green field from the northwest corner, and discovered why it was so green ... water, duh. The poop was solid and dry at least. TFTC
