Description
Excerpt from Wanderings of an Elephant Hunter
It is curious that an animal Of such a size, and requiring such huge quantities of food, should trouble to eat ground nuts - or pea nuts, as they are called in this country. Of course, he does not pick them up singly, but plucks up the plant, Shakes Off the, loose earth and eats the roots with the nuts adhering to them. One can imagine the feelings of a native when he discovers that during the night his plantation has been visited by an elephant.
