Crowley, your knee jerk 'dissing' (US, British, slang: to put someone down, or show disrespect by the use of insulting
language or dismissive behaviour) of an observed actual event relevant to Freaky's thread topic comes as a surprise.
I find your story extremely implausible -- giraffes don't have front teeth so they can't bite people's ears off; people would have to stand still and allow their ears to be chewed -- but why don't you provide a fuller description of what you saw before anyone else makes a 'kneejerk' dismissal.

I had this pet giraffe and I tried to teach it to bite off Scott Tenorman's sausage. That damn giraffe always only licked it, so I know this story is fake and gay.

Originally posted by Bosse de NageI found it hard to believe that an enclosure with 3 restraining walls would be inadequate to keep an animal from reaching the milling crowd. That zoo must have the dumbest architects and sky-high liability insurance.
Since giraffes lack front teeth, it's possible that the ear was actually sucked off.
Or did the girl stand there, still as a leaf, the better for Gerry to chew?

Originally posted by Bosse de NageHey, Bosse. First to admit that I know diddly squat about animals and only maybe three things about giraffes (none of which are technical): They are extraordinarily fast; they have great vision; they're self sufficient in any habitat. Let me change that to four: Two years ago Nordlys also taught me that some giraffes may possibly be filled with whipped cream. Why or how that Houston injury occurred I have no idea. Recollection, however, is still vivid of the sudden hubbub, screams, ambulances, first responders, police cordoning off the area; of Evelyn and I talking with other witnesses who were also sick to their stomachs over the unfortunate event. She would chew me out for my lighthearted Cool Ranch Dorito ear metaphor, this morning, if she could.
