“As the day wound to a close, our two resident bulls decided to test their over twenty ton bulks in hand-to-hand combat. Or rather Tusk-to-Tusk.

“Palaeoloxodon is one of the largest land animals, and definitely one, if not the largest land mammal of all time and largest species of elephant. Living in Ancient India during the Pleistocene, it was surprisingly more closely related to the modern African Elephant than any of the Asian types.

“Here, it was discovered that the elephants were actually quite docile, with only the Bulls, upon reaching maturity, needing to actually be housed in the enclosure at all times, with the females being only brought in during bad weather and during their heat, being allowed free-range on the island during all other times. They are quite intelligent, which isnt surprising considering that all elephant species were quite socially advanced and are good problem solvers. Some have formed bonds with both caretakers and guards. One even befriended a Nasutoceratops who wasn’t too keen on having company.

“Our oldest cow, who many workers have nicknamed ‘Mama’ is our go-to for training and gathering data on their kind, such as their height and weight. She seems to not truly care one way or another, as long as she gets treats.”
