Polish politician fumes over "gay" elephant in zoo

Fri Apr 10, 2009 11:53am BST
WARSAW (Reuters) - A Polish politician has criticised his local zoo for acquiring a "gay" elephant named Ninio who prefers male companions and will probably not procreate, local media reported on Friday.

"We didn't pay 37 million zlotys (7.6 million pounds) for the largest elephant house in Europe to have a gay elephant live there," Michal Grzes, a conservative councillor in the city of Poznan in western Poland, was quoted as saying.

"We were supposed to have a herd, but as Ninio prefers male friends over females how will he produce offspring?" said Grzes, who is from the right-wing opposition Law and Justice party.

The head of the Poznan zoo said 10-year-old Ninio may be too young to decide whether he prefers males or females as elephants only reach sexual maturity at 14.

What a maroon! Everyone knows that boy elephants learn the ropes by hanging out with other boy elephants! Besides, they are too afraid to approach a girl elephant so they need to bolster their courage with some raunchy stories first.
