Reviving an Elephant

In 1903, Thomas Edison's film crew recorded the death of a female elephant, Topsy, at Coney Island (via electrocution) because this "rogue" elephant killed three men. In this slightly more optimistic, 'family values'-oriented rethink of that narrative, not only is Topsy brought back to life via electricity, but shortly thereafter she mates with a male elephant (with the assistance of some friendly villagers) and produces several adorable offspring.
