So can flying squid. Because if we get in trouble for it in the ocean, we can just fly away, motherfuckers.

And even for him it's against the laws of physics but he does it anyway for he doesn't give a shit about laws

[-] kewwwi@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

there's no elephant police

[-] lugal@sopuli.xyz 3 points 8 months ago

That's impossible! How is their society supposed to function without a police?

[-] supercriticalcheese@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Elephant society says otherwise

[-] lugal@sopuli.xyz 2 points 8 months ago

I hope they don't participate in mutual aid or other anarchist terrorism because that could tear down the state!

[-] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 4 points 8 months ago

what if the ones you've gotten in trouble with are flying fish?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

We're in cahoots.

[-] FlihpFlorp@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

What if I put wings on something like a frog or amphibious creature of your choice

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Good luck with that, I suppose.

[-] Macaroni_ninja@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago

Also they could hide on a cherry tree or something

[-] KreekyBonez@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

well, I've never seen an elephant in a cherry tree...

[-] supercriticalcheese@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Cause they are hidden good

[-] CluckN@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago

That’s like the elephant that learned it can block traffic and steal sugar cane out of the truck.

edit2: !quickanimalfacts@lemm.ee

[-] kewwwi@lemmy.world 11 points 8 months ago

[-] CommunityLinkFixer@lemmings.world 3 points 8 months ago

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !quickanimalfacts@lemm.ee

[-] EndHD@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago
[-] hanke@feddit.nu 2 points 8 months ago

Nice! Looking forward to see some facts!

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 6 points 8 months ago

I'd like to see them play Mario Kart.

[-] kewwwi@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago

they clearly don't want to

[-] covert_czar@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 8 months ago

There's an elephant addon in supertux kart

[-] KpntAutismus@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

until they get eaten by lions.

that really happens.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 10 points 8 months ago

Mostly just the sick ones and the babies. Lions generally don't go after prey that large. They generally avoid giraffes too. They have to be pretty desperate to go after an elephant because they can't kill it like most of their prey by either suffocation or breaking their neck.

[-] kewwwi@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

they clearly want to

[-] nieceandtows@programming.dev 5 points 8 months ago

They just never want to jump
