GAUHATI, India - Six Asiatic wild elephants were electrocuted as they went berserk after drinking rice beer in India's remote northeast, a wildlife official said Tuesday.

Nearly 40 elephants came to a village on Friday looking for food. Some found beer, which farmers ferment and keep in plastic and tin drums in their huts, said Sunil Kumar, a state wildlife official.

They got drunk, uprooted a utility pole carrying power lines and were electrocuted in Chandan Nukat, a village nearly 150 miles west of Shillong, the capital of Meghalaya state, Kumar said.
Has anybody seen Timothy?

Poor elephants! They were just looking to party... apparently elephants really know how to party. Uprooting telephone poles? Wow.

Must be an issue of scale. Drunk humans uproot mailbox posts, and drunk elephants uproot telephone poles. Something in beer makes mammals uproot wooden cylindrical support structures. Surely there's an NIH grant in that.

****, we were doing it wrong. When I was young we didn't need booze to be involved to go out knocking over mailboxes.

Hopefully you didn't storm too many villages in your youth:evil:
