The Second Punic War broke out in 218 BC after Hannibal's great Army made the famous military exploit of carrying war to Italy by crossing the Alps with approximatively 37 North African war elephants.
The fate of these elephants is tragic. Most died from the cold or from lack of food in the Alps, and the rest died in the first battle of Trebbia in Italy.
They were drunk and wore heavy armor for combat.
This species of North African elephant no longer exists, they were supposed to be smaller than any elephant we know of at the time.

Every time I view this picture, I'm moved by the construction of the helmet. When knights went into battle, I am guessing that it was better to appear as fierce as possible to one's enemies. However, the upturned portion of the opening does make me wonder if the knight was just happy to be there...or was trying to confuse people.

Damn transparent knives.
Does anything cut deeper than love?
I need to get some new body armor."

Body armor, also known as body armour, personal armor or armour, or a suit or coat of armor, is protective clothing designed to absorb or deflect physical attacks. Historically used to protect military personnel, today it is also used by various types of police (riot police in particular), private security guards or bodyguards, and occasionally ordinary civilians. Today there are two main types: regular non-plated body armor for moderate to substantial protection, and hard-plate reinforced body armor for maximum protection, such as used by combat soldiers.
Plate armour is a historical type of personal body armour made from bronze, iron, or steel plates, culminating in the iconic suit of armour entirely encasing the wearer. Full plate steel armour developed in Europe during the Late Middle Ages, especially in the context of the Hundred Years' War, from the coat of plates worn over mail suits during the 14th century.
In Europe, plate armour reached its peak in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. The full suit of armour, also referred to as a panoply, is thus a feature of the very end of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance period. Its popular association with the "medieval knight” is due to the specialised jousting armour which developed in the 16th century.
Full suits of Gothic plate armour were worn on the battlefields of the Burgundian and Italian Wars. The most heavily armoured troops of the period were heavy cavalry, such as the gendarmes and early cuirassiers, but the infantry troops of the Swiss mercenaries and the Landsknechts also took to wearing lighter suits of "three quarters" munition armour, leaving the lower legs unprotected.
Another cooperative armadillo. This one was foraging on our property. As I was reading about this species, which is the official state mammal of Texas, I read they are "cat-sized". This guy or gal would make normal domestic cat look pretty small. I'd say a fully grown one is more like the size of a Welsh Corgi. But, sadly, people don't see many fully grown ones because they tend to end up dead along highways. They have poor eyesight and forage mostly at dusk, nighttime and dawn along roadways. The dig for grubs and insects in the grass.
