this elephant you can see is absolutely
focused on that runner his trunks
outstretched his is crumpled up his ears
he’s not trying to chase this rhino or
intimidated he is trying to catch it and
indeed once he caught that animal and
killed it once the elephant has caught
the rhino he Gore’s it from above
straight into the shoulder blade just
pushing his tusks deep into the
shoulders and and breaking the back in
the palace the elephant then uses the
weight of its head to crush the Rhino
while driving its tusks through the body
the cause of death is clear and Van Dyck
has a definite indication that the
attack is intentional but a bigger
question remains is this a single rogue
animal that is somehow managed to escape
detection or is it something deeper
affecting more than just one individual
