JOPLIN, Mo. (CNN/WDAF) - The latest cleaning crew in Joplin got some cheers and boos Sunday.

An elephant from the Piccadilly Circus was used to move heavy debris, like vehicles, in the tornado-ravaged town.

Some people who watched the highly trained elephant work, said they thought it was a bad idea and a publicity stunt.

Others thought it was genius and they were appreciative of the help.
