Excuse to get Elephant Dooky

WEll, i live near a fairly large zoo, which coincidentally has many large elephants. The need for a highly nutritious dung alternative has arisen from the fact that many ranchers in oklahoma don't bother feeing their cattle grains and hay. Rather they let them roam the pastures eating whatever they please. And through many successes and failures, i have decided that that is deterring my interests. So....to get to the point....
I am looking for an excuse to tell the zoo people. I am going to call them and get in touch with the elephant department or whatever and ask them for some shit. Dry if at all possible. Only problem is i don't know if they will buy a simple "uhhh it's for a school experiment" excuse. If i could pull it off for free i would be a hero to fungus everywhere! Please help me think of something.

Just go in and ask the elephant keepers if you can cart away some of the dung for your garden - offer them like $5 for the privilege. If they ask why you want elephant dung, just tell them that to properly compost it needs to be entirely grain-fed manure.
Just be polite and stick to the 'I'm a gardener' charade!

Tell them you want dung from something fed only grain or whatever.. Tell them you'll come get it and shit yourself. The worst they can say is no. ;p

well, if by compost it you mean let it dry. then yes. It's just that i wonder what the difference between elephant shi drying time and cow shit drying time is. I wonder if i could lay it on a cookie sheet or something in the oven.....leave the oven on 200 and crack the door. that would dry it. the only purpose of drying that i really know of doing anygood is drying to get rid of ammonia from the piss.

let us know if you got it and what department you asked for, i live near a zoo also.i remember seeing a documentry(thats all i do) about elephants and i learned that their dung is almost entirely straw. so i magine it would need less drying time.

Well, I don't know much about zoos or how they operate, but if it were me I would just walk around until I found someone who works there. I would then explain to that person that I want some elephant dung for my garden, and ask who I could talk to about that.
You'll probably have to come back whenever they usually clean the cages, of course. Elephants seem like they would shit a lot, so they probably muck 'em out once a day.
Zoodoo (myriad types of composted zoo animal crap) has gained immense popularity in gardening (and mycological) circles, and it so popular that they are only sending it to like 200 people out of everyone who requests it. They're manufacturing heat-pressed zoodoo figures and things to put in the garden to leach nutrients into the soil.

Man, I saw some elephants take a shit at the zoo. There shit is fucking huge. One chunk is fucking the size of a two liter bottle. I'm getting a hard on just thinking about getting a huge ass pile of dung. Well, not really. My roommate would fucking flip if one day there was a giant pile of shit in the backyard. "Oh, it's for the garden." Yeah, he'd roll my ass if I tried that.

Just tell them you grow mushrooms as a hobby, and how they flourish or rich elephant dung. That should work!

You could always get a side job at the zoo, how long could it possibly take to work your way up to the guy who cleans up elephant shit.
