For a minute i was trying to figure out how that elephant was alive missing his ass

For everyone that's an idiot like me: there's a fancily-shaped sign (in white) between the elephant and the photographer.

Even AI slop is better than that. I assumed it was like a kid on gimp who took a pic of an elephant and tried to remove the outside and stick it in a background pic of a store.

Elephants eat about 350 lbs of veg a day. I bet there isn't 100 lbs of processed corn foodstuff in the average convenience store.
