Elephants have very distinct recollection abilities much unlike other animals . You do it dirty , it remembers your face and comes for you even in ten years time .
Have the greatest memories amongst Mammals.

Is it that when people see Elephants coming, they can't run faster away from it or enter somewhere narrow for Elephant to pass through? The kind of Adrenaline that will be at play at the sight of an Elephant ehn, na only lion or cheetah go fit manage touch the hem of my garment.

RIP to the farmer.
Lol, you can't outrun elephant or hippo as human... Don't let the size deceive you.
Climbing tree won't save you either, they'll uproot the tree, unless a very huge tree

Those things can be quick in short bursts. If you don't see them first and they see you and you're close like a few feet away.... It will likely not end well for you. And unless you're running into a cave or house built with cement blocks and concrete, that narrow place might be your grave yard.

Yorubastardz:
An Elephant is a majestic creature.

It can never ever trample on you just like that
Unless

1. You are a Porcher hunting for elephant tusk
2. You tried to kill it or threaten it
3. You're drunk and stood at its front as threat
4. You tried Mine it's skull

Hippo are aggressive but Elephant?? Naaa
Elephant only attack when they are attacked
It is called Defense mechanisms

Elephants have a highly photogenic memory
So a hunter kills 3 elephants in an area
Other elephants will know and attack back

A very majestic creature. Very chill Very cool
Until you try to mine it's skull.
You're spreading wrong information! Elephants will Attack you whether or not you're a poacher, drunk who stood on it's path or skull miner. It will Attack if it doesn't like your presence. It has been known to attack communities and leave scores of death on its path. It has attacked tourists who only as much as looked at it. They are aggressive animals!! Especially when there's a young calf with them, during mating season or when they're in hyper territorial mode.

No go dey spread wrong information for here.

Yup! We have really big game/animal reserves in Nigeria.

Arapmoi22:
Animals don't attack until they felt threatened.
My closest shot with Lion and Elephants was in Uganda.
I came out of my pick-up van to have a good view of an elephant herds in Pakwach.
They saw me and tolerated me.
After sometimes, the leader charged to let me know "time's up".
I ran in and the driver moved immediately.
All animals are naturally friendly, but can also mis-interpret us like we Men do.
Lol... It's like you are not well in the head grin. Animals don't attack until they feel threatened? Are you kidding me? The man eating lions in Kenya attacked those people because they felt threatened? The Crocs and Gators that attack people were threatened? The anaconda that killed and ate a woman at the Amazon was threatened by her? The woman that was eaten by a tiger in Philippines was threatening the animal abi?

The elephant that stormed a village and killed scores of people was threatened by their existence I presume?

Go and check the other thread where they have hunted an hippopotamus down and preparing the pepper soup already, u would have heard otherwise if they hadn't killed it. When u see wild animals u run, but when u try any stunt, u face the consequences.

I once saw a very big python in a forest in akwaibom, we just stared at each other and everyone went their way. But animals can sense it when u try to be a hero angry

You think you can outrun an elephant? Lolz. I don't know of any mammal that a man can outrun. Maybe the duckbilled platypus and other aquatic mammals. Oh! And the sloth. Apart from these, I can't think of anyone.

Bull elephants and elephants with calf are aggressive. And I don't think there's Okija in Ogun State.

You can’t outrun an elephant. Not even the fastest man alive can.

The fastest man can actually do, but it's true I can't outrun it. I've made my research.
