Who the heck is "Barnes"? --Duemellon 16:47, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Without any other reference, Tusko loved Barnes and when he left the elephant became completely unmanageable makes no sense. I am removing it.ZebulonNebulon 18:30, 26 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why did anyone administer LSD to an elephant? -ErinHowarth (talk) 18:34, 5 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It was the 60s. --87.82.207.195 (talk) 12:16, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It was thought that LSD could excite elephants into a state known as thrush. However aside from the dose being massive the elephant was also injected with sodium pentathol, part of the lethal injection cocktail use din state sanctioned executions. Also Jolly West, the researcher was an M.K. Ultra researcher. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:E000:1314:43E7:C030:D1D5:1BC6:D3D (talk) 17:41, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
