Elephant harvest, not massacre.

Zimbabwe Issue
SCI's African Contractor has been busy as well. Dr. George Pangeti is currently setting up a conference to discuss the latest issues from Zimbabwe. News reports from Africa indicate that Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe has ordered soldiers out into the fields to kill as many animals as possible to obtain meat for the poor and starving in the Zimbabwe countryside. This is on the heels of an incident where 10 elephants were killed in front of eco-tourists near a hotel, in an effort to provide enough food for a Zimbabwe Independence Day celebration last week. There is conflicting information, indicating that there was only one incident, the one involving the elephants.

What a barbeque, eh? 10 elephants.
 
Its a shame... 10 elephants is hardly a massacre IMO. From what I've read, the park where the eco-tourist where at is way over populated with elephants anyway, some thing like a couple hundred need to be culled... What is a shame, is that they are having to rely on the wildlife to feed their people, but thats what happens when you destroy what little economy they had and steal all the land and redistibute to people that have no idea what to do with it...
