Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of the wild elephant, specifically as it existed in Ceylon (modern Sri Lanka). The author, a keen observer, draws upon his extensive travels through the island's mountains and forests to present a wealth of information and anecdotes about the creatureââ â¢s habits, behaviours, and its place in the natural order. The book also touches on the practice of capturing and training wild elephants, providing a glimpse into the complex relationship between humans and these intelligent and powerful animals. The authorââ â¢s detailed descriptions and insightful observations challenge common misconceptions about elephants, particularly the notion of their innate hostility towards other creatures. Through a mix of firsthand accounts and scholarly research, the author argues for a more nuanced understanding of the elephantââ â¢s natural disposition, revealing it as a creature of peaceful coexistence rather than inherent aggression. He also explores the intriguing question of the elephantââ â¢s tusks, comparing their presence in the African elephant to their scarcity in the Ceylon elephant, suggesting that their purpose and function may be far more complex than previously understood. The book's exploration of the elephant's habits and characteristics offers a compelling look at the natural world of a creature that has long fascinated and inspired humans. The author's vivid descriptions and insightful analysis make this book a valuable resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of this majestic animal.
