Abstract
THERE has just arrived at the Oxford Museum the skeleton of a full-grown male Ceylon elephant. During the visit of the Duke of Edinburgh to Ceylon there were two elephant drives, or kraals, held, of which full accounts were given in the daily papers at the time. It may be remembered that at one of these kraals a large male elephant, a rogue, was driven into the terminal enclosure, together with several other smaller wild elephants. The rogue charged the tame elephants introduced amongst the wild ones, knocking them over repeatedly, and effectually preventing the process of noosing. It was at length found necessary to shoot him, in order that the remainder of the elephants might be secured.
