Sure, natural selection will fix that eventually, but keep in mind that natural selection takes an immensly long ass time to kick in so it's a bad idea to rely on that.
We could always accelerate that shit on our own, human selection could give us fully functioning tuskless elephants in a few decades, but moralfags will likely complain that we are raping nature.
Sometimes, I'm thinking that the reason why humanity exists is to accelerate evolution, it feels like a butthurt ceo complained about the speed of evolution so he told his subordinates to speed that shit up and thus humanity got created.
