Have u ever recreated Rome Total war by covering the pigs' back in Tar and setting them on fire, so they run and scare the enemy elephants?

That's very cool, thanks Flak!
It was a very long time since I visited a farm of any kind, so I've quite forgotten how much things have changed
-it's not so much about manual labor anymore is it!

How large is the staffing where you work? I can imagine that the personnel-per-animal count is rather extreme!
You have my sincere admiration, and my best wishes!  Smiley

BTW, what movie is that god-awful clip from? I only recognize it from a South Park episode where George Lucas and
Steven Spielberg "rape" Indiana Jones  Cry Wink
