A Polish politician has criticized his local zoo for acquiring a “gay” elephant named Ninio who prefers male companions and will probably not procreate.
“We didn’t pay 37 million zlotys ($11 million) for the largest elephant house in Europe to have a gay elephant live there,” Michal Grzes, a conservative councilor 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.
Any nutballs out there who aren’t hungup over everyone else’s sex life?
Perhaps they should have bought an elephant with a more masculine sounding name . . .
Bill or George or anything but Ninio!
Looks like he’s upset over a bad investment, genetic wise. Caveat emptor.
They can make a bundle from gay elephant pr0n!
if its the largest elephant house in europe, surely it doesnt matter that only ONE elephant is gay?
Ummm, #5 That goes without saying. I don’t think the editor even read past the 1st line of the story…
Perhaps, they are considering AI? If farmers can get semen from big vicious bulls, then I expect that experts in the zoo can get it from large and dangerous elephants.
It doesn’t matter what the animals preferences are. It can still be used to deepen the gene pool!
Much Better Headline
Elephant Likes Trunk on Both Ends.
But seriously, they wanted a sire for baby elephants they got a gay elephant who isn’t looking for action. The story could just as easily be about them buying a stud elephant and getting a gelding.
I’d be pissed if it was my money.

Why would one want to put defective genes back into the pool?
Gee, #9 – should we ask your parents (rimshot)
The massive genitalia of gay fellows like Ninio always make straight dudes angry and defensive.
There can’t BE gay animals…all the examples are just fake liberal plots to confuse True Americans(tm). We know gays JUST pretend to be attracted to the same sex JUST to piss off the right thinking godly Americans. Since being gay is a “cultural lifestyle choice”, and animals can’t think and don’t have souls, elephants can’t be in the “plot” to piss off Christians by pretending to be attracted to the same sex.
(that was sarcasm, if you can’t tell, you’re silly.)
I just wish the wacko right would SETTLE on group to hate and blame for all our problems. It was SO simple when it was the Jews, then immigrants (Irish, Catholics, Polish, Itallians, now Mexicans) and of course black folk were always an easy target. But now it’s SO politically incorrect to attacks Jews, blacks and (non-Mexican) immigrants for all our problems, they’re left with only the gays. Once that’s not cool anymore, I don’t know WHAT they’ll do. We need to find alien life on another planet so the right wing can start blaming them for all their problems.
P.S. Never have a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.
Too easy. All you need is:
– 1 stepladder
– 1 raincoat
– 2 gallons of grass scented lube
– 1 copy of Pachyderm Honcho magazine
– 1 large bucket
– 1 very large turkey baster
Problem solved.
Ok admit it, I jumped to the conclusion that another verbose GOP homophobe politician had come out or was forced out when I read the gay elephant headline.
We have about ten years of success with artificial insemination of elephants I’d talk with the sellers and work out who will pay the vet bills for that. assuming that they knew the elephant was meat for breeding and not a good candidate.
The elephant is only 10 years old and still doesn’t understand sex. Give him time, he is still a juvenile.
And yes, it seems the right wing nuts are preoccupied with sexual orientation.
Well if he’s only 10 then he’s probably just experimenting.
Why would God create a homosexual elephant?
Maybe he’s bi-curious…
Damn it, #12, you stole exactly what I was going to write… good job! 🙂
Hard for the wackos to prattle on about homosexuality being “unnatural” when we see examples of it in nature all the time.
(Wingnuts equating homosexuality between consenting adults with animals eating their babies in 3… 2… 1…)
#17 For the same reason he created fossils… to tempt the faithful into believing that evil science instead of the one true faith!
#17. To annoy Poland.

You certainly have an unnatural obsession with animal and gay sex don’t you there FIDO. You really need a hobby.
Oh no gay elephants!
But wait its a choice, not natural!
Yep, keep saying it to yourselves homophobes, keep saying it.

#22 How can I put this, ObamaSucks? Oh yeah, f*ck you. I have gay friends who can’t celebrate their commitment because of bigots like you. You and your ilk, with your obsessions over other people’s sex lives, you’re the ones who started this. Let go of your desire to put your bigotry into law, and I’ll let go of it too, and go back to ridiculing you for any number of your other moronic wingnut statements. 🙂
Elephants reach sexual maturity at a similar age than humans, the lil’ thing is 10 and just like humans YOU DON’T MAKE A 10yo DO IT WITH AN ADULT.
#24 FIDO said “I have gay friends who can’t celebrate their commitment because of bigots like you.”
I don’t see anyone stopping your “friends” from visiting all the sewers they want. If your “friends” would keep there private life out of the public domain then their deviant lifestyle might not be an issue. Since you choose to force others to accept your perversions then your get what you get.
#26 yehwholikestosuckobama,
Fido’s friends would love to keep their lives private if it weren’t for your friends who think that God gave them the right to command others how to live according to what a bunch of hypocrite televangelists think.
#27 Demon H. Wrong
What does religion have to do it? A creepy lifestyle is a creepy lifestyle.
It could’ve been worse… at least it wasn’t a gay fish.
Anything that keeps the right wingnuts out of President Obama’s way fix the mess they leftthen this is fine with me.
If a gay elephant keeps these morons occupied with something to bitch about, then we should put together a gay Noah’s Arc.
