News of the name change prompted elephants in northeast India to get drunk on farmers’ homemade rice beer before heading out to rampage the local village (truthfully this is rather sad news for some of the elephants, but bear with me)…

Paris Hilton, the New York socialite who’s famous for… well… nothing, had this to say about the Elephant’s drunken romp:

“The elephants get drunk all the time… It is becoming really dangerous. We need to stop making alcohol available to them.”

So true, Paris… so true. Her publicist later denied that Hilton said any such thing, but hey if you read it here, it must be true. She denied to comment on the iPetNews.com name change, but we’re pretty certain that it’s her favorite blog for all her pet and animal related news.
