Elephant Awarness Month may be nearing its close but the celebration for Mimi and Dolly is far from over. These two lucky ladies at the Denver Zoo got a chance to play with their food, in this case two ginormous pumpkins, one weighing in at 425 pounds and the other at 660 pounds. The zoo's tradition of giving elephants pumpkins to carve... err, stomp... announces the start of this weekend's Boo at the Zoo and, from the looks of it, makes a special snack for the pachyderms!

5No elephant should be in a zoo! They need to roam and be in a lot of open space. Poor elephants.

work with endangered species but i dont know if all the animals have enough room....sigh, i guess it is better than being killed for tusks somewhere else
