He's here, he's huge, get used to it

Hey, what an elephant decides to do in the privacy of his own zoo enclosure isn't anybody else's business...

A Polish politician has criticized his local zoo for acquiring a "gay" elephant named Ninio who prefers male companions and will probably not procreate, local media reported Friday.

"We didn't pay 37 million zlotys ($11 million) for the largest elephant house in Europe to have a gay elephant live there," Michal Grzes, a conservative councilor in the city of Poznan in western Poland, was quoted as saying.

Now, why don't you try to be a little more tolerant of the elephant's lifestyle, Michal? Give him a chance. At least wait until he grows a mustache and starts wearing assless leather chaps before doing anything too hasty.

(Yes, I went for the esay gay stereotypes there. It's not like I'm getting paid for these jokes.)
