    Topsy killed a man not because she was given a lit cigarette to eat, but because it wasn't her brand.

    Zakareeeeee ... The elephant could have been transferred to Zoo or kept in cage rather than this fate. Think about it.

    its also not in the description that the reason he killed three people was that he had been beaten and hooked her whole life, and then her trainer fed her a lit cigarette, igniting her rampage.
