Jordi Dissonance question

"Excuse me, did you say 'elephant tracks'??"

"Yes, over here, next to the remains...We still have to pry apart what appears to be articulated plate armor--"

"Woah."

"--to confirm the remains are human...Unless you'd prefer to wait until the DNA lab processes these swabs we've been collecting."

"So, what are we looking at? Some SCA dude ticks off his pet elephant, and gets trampled to death?"

"If it makes you feel any better, that does appear to be toxic waste he was carrying in that barrel."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Edit: Just thought of a follow-up scene, along the same line...)

"Whaddyya mean, 'elephant hair?' Elephants don't have hair!...Do they?"

"Mammoths do."

"...Mammoths?"

"Or rather, they did."

"...Mammoths??"

"The long, coarse hairs we found at the scene, embedded in the elephant tracks, were not human. DNA testing was inconclusive, but did show the strongest correlation with elephant DNA. So, yeah, it was either the world's fuzziest elephant, or it was an animal that's been extinct for thousands of years... Any way, that's all we've got for now. 'Bye."

"...Mammoths?!?"
