- It was thought that LSD could excite elephants into a state known as thrush. However aside from the dose being massive the elephant was also injected with sodium pentathol, part of the lethal injection cocktail use din state sanctioned executions. Also Jolly West, the researcher was an M.K. Ultra researcher. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:E000:1314:43E7:C030:D1D5:1BC6:D3D (talk) 17:41, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
