Firecrackers, Chili powder, Elephants and Condoms

[Botch]

Interesting show on PBS tonight, Earth's Natural Wonders, focused on an African nation's struggles against marauding elephants eating all their corn. One guy came up with a "weapon", a condom filled with chili powder surrounding a firecracker. Elephants have the greatest sense of smell among all mammals, and once lit and launched, these "bombs" drove the elephants to safer pastures. Cool as heck, and those guys had brass balls, chasing a herd of hungry elephants, no doubt! :eusa-clap:

A clever solution for keeping elephants out of your corn field.

I recently passed a truck stop on I-70 and their flashing neon said touted "Live Music, Fireworks, Tattoos".

Now if they include condoms and chili powder, that's a party I am not gonna miss.
