[edit]DescriptionKilling the Elephant.png |
English: Illustration for the magazine article "The Old Elephant in Exeter 'Change," Once a Week volume 9, page 587. Text: "When it was arranged that the buildings in which this animal was confined should be taken down, and houses built on the site, forty beasts were removed to the old stables near Carlton House, besides the monkeys; but as it was found impossible to remove the elephant, it was decided that he must he killed.... [A] detachment of the Foot Guards were called in, and they fired one hundred and twenty shots into the elephant—three balls entering his brain, and seven into other parts of his head. Still he survived; his keeper next ordered him to kneel down; the poor animal immediately obeyed the order, and his head thus presenting a surer mark, the last shots caused his death, but he survived the one hundred and twenty shots for an hour.
