Causing quite the stir
The elephant created quite a stir; she was agitated, and the locals couldn’t figure out why. The villagers watched as the elephant, now separated from her herd, pushed her trunk into the dirt. But the question on everyone’s mind was why she left the herd in the first place.
Going to look at what the elephant was doing
Elephants do not abandon one another. When an elephant is injured, the other elephants try to help, even if staying and helping puts them in danger. If an elephant in the group is forced to move slowly due to injury or old age, the other elephants in the group will follow suit. When an elephant dies, the entire herd mourns his loss. However, the herd was nowhere to be found, and this lonely elephant was acting strangely on his own. The villagers were taken aback and decided to investigate what the elephant was up to.
