Elephant, the animal deeply embedded into Indian culture
Ya, my father's friend was a mahout. His elephant killed him. Crazy thing is I rode on top of that elephant when I was a toddler.I have never seen a dragon being pissed off,but I have certainly seen a tusker getting of his rocker when he is off his rocker my best suggestion is to go to an higher elevation.The damn animals have fucking tempers and there are incidents of them killing their own mahouts if they are pissed off.The joke is they regret the killing and go into a depression for a lot of days.They are extremely intelligent creatures with an insanely good memory
Thanks for starting the thread, However Beg to differ, he is Lord Ganesh, for more details :This guy must be Master Elephant
Elephant does represent India better than Tiger. However, India has a rival: Thailand.I think the elephant should be India's national animal, not the tiger.
It represents India a lot better.
Elephant represent India better: Slow, humble, peaceful but strong and family orientedTiger was chosen because the Indian subcontinent has its native species of tiger that's not found in any other region (whereas India's elephants are generic Asiatic elephants also found in south-east Asia).
Besides, it used to be a royal/high-class thing to own tigers, whereas elephants were considered more as cattle, because of the kind of heavy-duty jobs they were mostly used in.
