I pretty much agree with you, 'posie'. Unfortunately _all_ animals, protected, endangered or otherwise, are candidates for those that like killing!

I believe elephants are protected in some areas, but not in others. It's possible that in the above Youtube video that the animal was killed humanely by a high powered rifle during a routine cull.
