Jumbo the Elephant

Does anyone know how Jumbo The Elephant died? Hit by a freight train, succumbed quickly, no dry eyes Poor thing had no chance His soul made a ghost dance People around reacted with sadness, quietly cried

Awwwhhhh... that's so sad. You know ... most childhood tales were tragic. I don't remember how Dumbo died ... but Bambi was very traumatic for me!! Maybe that's why everyone loves deer :)
