Elephants rampaging in other parts of the world besides Capitol Hill

Do you think this would work on the Republicans?:

In the last five years, over 330 people have been trampled to death by the large animals. The worst affected districts are Ranchi, Dumka, Pakur, Godda and Jamshedpur. The shrinking forest cover and encroachment of the elephant corridor are seen as the main cause of the confrontation between human beings and elephants. To keep the tuskers away, the villagers have to arm themselves with sticks, sharp-edged weapons, light fires and beat drums during at night.

I like the sticks and fires part, reminds me of pitchforks and torches .....
