Elephant running speed: 40 km/h
Usain Bolt record top speed: 44.7km/h
Average human speed: 10-16 km/h.

It's better you see them from afar and avoid them. If they are close to you when you see them ,it might end badly.
Serious, are they that fast?

Indian elephants are also dangerous except when trained or used to humans.

Maybe the elephant has been threatened
someone probably encroached into their territory or it's the mating season and Bull elephants are usually aggressive during that time.

Were they sleeping, an Elephant can barely run fast, why not, they run on seeing the creature?

I am just imagining myself standing and being attacked by elephant 🤔🤔

Elephants still get confidence dey attack for this weather. If men catch am na meat beat that ooo.

The Elephant better maintain him lane.
What are you going to use and kill the elephant?
Even if you manage to do so , you will be arrested and jailed. This is one of the very few animals that the authorities don't joke with.

Asian elephants Also kill people. The thing is that Thailand and Philippines and I think Indonesia really love elephants and have a huge number of domesticated elephants. So must elephants you see there are usually domesticated, if breeze carry you go jam the ones in the wild your body go tell you.

Elephant don't just attack, Those hunters probably killed or stole its child.
if you look threatening they will attack, if there are new calves around they will attack, if you encroach their territory they will attack, if it's during mating season the bulls will attack very aggressively.

Lol... Elephants are faster than humans, make no mistake on that, coupled with the fact that these were aged men 45yrs and 50yrs.

Yes, bro. There are still many wild elephants in certain forests of Ogun State, Yankari (Bauchi), Andoni (Rivers State), few in some deep parts of Oyo and Kwara forests and many, many in the national park in Cross River State.
Thanks for the info

You really don't know anything about elephant sha. One single bull elephant can wreck a community. They're very strong ( can jack up a car) 3 times faster than an average adult and very smart and agile, very fearless when they're pissed.

They are the largest and strongest land mammals.

Even lions avoid them and only target calves or very ill/weak specimens.

Elephants easily kill rhinos and crocodiles.

Any hunters who shoot and miss - or who fail to completely bring down an adult elephant - are in serious trouble once it charges.

Elephants are very smart.

They remember good and evil for a long time if not forever.

RIP to the dead and may the missing be found.

As part of a Public Offer promo, First Bank actually brought one to their headquarters at Marina nearly 20 years ago. It was an old elephant and so the risk to the public was quite low (although you never can tell 100% how this sort of thing will turn out). It caused quite a stir - most people there had never seen an elephant before. Some people actually thought it was a human being (or two) in a costume! cheesy
Re: Fatal Elephant Attack Sparks Panic In Oyo Community, One Dead, Another Missing by McLizbae: 7:59am On Apr 25
Too many allegations leveled against that possibly innocent elephant o!
Biodun1929:
I doubt it was an elephant that killed the man. Maybe it was an animal that they didn't know the name for, and they just said it was an elephant. Elephants don't just kill like that, and they also said it appeared out of nowhere...where did elephant come from and where did it disappear to.
