We construct a semi-permeable membrane which lets everything but elephants
pass through. This we drag across the desert.

We irradiate the desert with slow neutrons. The elephant becomes
radioactive and starts to disintegrate. Once the disintegration
process is progressed far enough the elephant will be unable to resist.

We assert that wild elephant can ipso facto not be observed in the Sahara
desert. Therefore, if there are any elephants at all in the desert, they

Let's take the binocular, tweezers, and a small box. Come to an elephant and look at him in the turned binocular. Using tweezers, pick up the elephant and
put it into the box. Then go to the cage, place the box into the cage and look at the elephant in the unturned binocular. That's is.
P.S. This method could be applied for crocodile hunting. Offered by Teimuraz Abashidze, tga@geocell.com.ge |
Let's cut the desert from the earth's crust by the perimeter and raise one side, putting the cage to the opposite low side. The elephant due to the law of
gravity will fall into the cage. It should be remarked that the number of elephants could be much more then one. Offered by Igor Pozdeev, pgar@chat.ru |
