Eunice the elephant’s delivery had begun. Unfortunately, there was a complication; her baby was in danger of suffocating which in turn threatened Eunice’s life.
Janice, the large-animal vet, was given an update on Eunice’s status. The baby was caught in the umbilical cord and it needed to be untangled. Everyone in the room knew what needed to be done - the elephant in the room was that Janice would need to reach inside Eunice and if her arms couldn’t reach, she’d have to go in deeper. Potentially much deeper.
“Time to suit up!” Janice laughed. Everyone else looked uncomfortable.
