It seems that there was this lady who had never seen an Elephant before
(preposterous you say?) why, she didn't even know what one looked
like!  Well, as luck would have it, after leaving the farm and moving
to the city, she woke up one morning, and lo and behold, there was an
elephant in her garden, just a'pulling the vegetables up with his
trunk and eating them.  Why, the poor lady called the police and said
in an excited voice "HELP! There's a monster in my garden!"  Being
slightly disbelieving, the desk sargeant had to ask "Just what does
this monster look like?"  "Well," she said, "he's huge! And he is
pulling up the vegetables in my garden with his long and wiggly tail!"
"And just what is he doing with the vegetables?"  "Why, uh, sargeant,
you better come out and see for yourself, because you just won't
believe it!"
