Did any of you every read the book Elephants in the Living Room, Bears in the Canoe? Great real stories about a family with a large farm who took in unwanted, unusual animals, such as a baby elephant, who lived in the house as she was growing up. Anyway, they had the bear that was in the Hamm's beer commercials. In the book, he tells of the care and training that went into, first, talking a grizzly bear into going in a wobbly craft on the water, and two, actually shooting the commercial with all actors versed in safely being around the *bear*. It is a very good read. Later, when the elephant grew big, they were out throwing snowballs at one another. The mother in the family was very pregnant; the elephant learned to roll and throw her own snowballs. When the husband started throwing them back at her, she ran to *hide* behind "mom". Sounded like a pretty funny sight!
