Original Note:
In 1916, Mary, a circus elephant, killed Walter "Red" Eldridge after he provoked her. Amidst public outcry, she was executed in Tennessee, dying on the second hanging attempt. A post-mortem showed Mary had a painful tooth infection, likely affecting her behavior. https://allthatsinteresting.com/murderous-mary-the-elephant
