Same elephant?

In 1986, Peter Davies was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from
Northwestern University

On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant
standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed
distressed, so Peter approached it very carefully.

He got down on one knee and inspected the elephant's foot and found a
large piece of wood deeply embedde d in it. As carefully and as gently
as he could, Peter worked the wood out with his hunting knife, after
which the elephant gingerly put down its foot. The elephant turned to
face the man, and with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him
for several tense moments. Peter stood frozen, thinking of nothing else
but being trampled. Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned,
and walked away. Peter never forgot that elephant or the events of that
day.

Twenty years later, Peter was walking through a Chicago Zoo with his
teenaged son. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the
creatures turned and walked over to near where Peter and his son
Cameron were standing. The large bull elephant stared at Peter, lifted
its front foot off the ground, then put it down. The elephant did that
several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man.

Remembering the encounter in 1986, Peter couldn 't help wondering if
this was the same elephant. Peter summoned up his courage, climbed over
the railing and made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to
the elephant and stared back in wonder. The elephant trumpeted again,
wrapped its trunk gently around Peter legs, lifting him carefully then
slammed his stupid ass against the railing, killing him instantly.

Probably wasn't the same elephant.
