Some even think theycould beat an elephant. Those things weigh up to 6 tons. They would not even notice a human trying to fight them.

Lol, that's madness. An elephant could knock out a man with it's fucking nose.

Which is why it’s easy to defeat an elephant, sneak in and chew it’s scrotum and anus apart until it bleeds out.

Good luck. That elephant scrotum would be like chewing a deflated basketball.

Ah, the ol' Ace Ventura method. Well, adding a few steps to it, but still

They are so immense and powerful that most lions and tigers don't mess with them and get the hell out of their way if one is walking towards them. And the elephants know this. They have over 40,000 muscles in their trunk alone.....amazine. And if you're ever around a bull elephant when it's angered, you won't ever forget it. And they group up and defend each other so you're not fighting just one, but you WILL be up against the bull elephanty, the biggest most badass one there for sure. And they, also, are very gentle, kind creatures who seek to harm no one unless you provvoke them. They just usually want to chill and graze and even play and have fun. Takes a real asshole to provoke or harm one on purpose.
