			If the human was 100% definitely guilty (verified video evidence, or whatever) of an unprovoked murder of an innocent person then I'd shoot them just 'cause.  Any other scenario I'd shoot the elephant.

			I'd give them both a 5 minute head start then hunt them down like a bounty hunter.Whichever i shoot first then the other one survives.

			You also have to factor in which would make you more money.A murderers teeth or an elephants tusks.Also you could make stuff like a coat or bag from elephant skin.Human skin not really.

			Whichever of them was about to attack me, otherwise I would hold my fire.

			I don't think I could kill another person. It's not to say that I think the elephants life is less important in this scenario, and there are situations where I think people don't deserve to live depending on what they've done. But if I had to pull the trigger myself, I don't think I could bring myself to shoot a person. So I'd choose the elephant, but only in a situation where I was forced to

			I'd be tempted to shoot the murderer, but then I'd probably shoot whoever was making me choose.

			I'd shoot the murderer but only after the elephant had trampled him into a pulp first then the bullet would be used to put him out of his misery.   | ||
