Plus the elephant was smart. Kept flanking him, jamming him and moving his head.
Elephants are my favourite animal. Biggest and strongest one on one. Have tremenous sense of family, memory.. When one is dying it goes off on its own. When the others come across it's body later they mourn it.
My user name is a combination of different concepts.. One of which is A Black rogue elephant
If that is what an anaconda would have to do to kill an Elephant, I don't think it would get far; but you never know

You would be surprised what animals can do.

Nah, anaconda stories are like Wilt Chamberlain stories...they're believe anything. There ain't even a clearly documented kill of an anaconda on an adult human....ever....and they have the things killing elephants?
Not that it wouldn't be possible for one to kill an adult. But it would take a big one. And if it takes a big anaconda to kill a 150-pound human....can you even begin to imagine how big an anaconda it would take to kill a 10,000 pound elephant that is MUCH stronger pound-for-pound than a human is?
What do they think the biggest thing an anaconda ever kills is? You find a 200 pound animal that's been killed by an anaconda, and I'll believe it, but be really surprised. I'd be unlikely to believe 500 pounds. And ya'all are trying to talk about 10,000.
Why would the anaconda stay around the neck though? The elephant would go around doing it's business, while the anaconda eventually tired or dehydrated.
If the anaconda could even stay around. An elephant has a neck about 10 feet around. Look at the thickness and weight of an anaconda - if it's only wrapped around once, it would barely even be able to hold it's own weight on. The anaconda needs to get its body around that neck twice to be able to do anything at all, and it doesn't constrict with the tail or the head, so we're talking a good 25+ feet just to have a firm grip on the neck. And as I said earlier, you're not even imagining constriction unless you're talking 40+ feet and thousands of pounds of anaconda, which is only something people on hallucinogens have seen.
Have you even seen a human neck and an elephant neck?
The reason I gave weights is to give an impression of relative strength. Elephants don't weigh 10,000 pounds because they're fat, they weigh 10,000 pounds because they are about 50 times bigger than you you are.
And think about what that neck does. It ain't no wimpy exposed human neck. IT STICKS STRAIGHT OUT HOLDING UP A HEAD THAT WEIGHS MORE THAN 1000 POUNDS. IT HOLDS UP THAT HEAD WHILE THEY PICK UP FREAKING TREES WITH THEIR TRUNK.
No anaconda, ever, ever, ever, is going to do anything to that neck. Not even close. It's like when some takes a 4-foot-long little rat snake and someone gets scared, "don't let it wrap around my neck!" That little rat snake can do NOTHING to you. Hell, an 8-foot python can do nothing to you. And the elephant is 50 times bigger than you with a neck that's probably 500 times stronger than yours....but some little 250 pound anaconda is going to give it problems?
I don't believe an anaconda is seeing an elephant but I'll take the word of Nat Geo over the Daily fukking Mirror
Green Anacondas, Green Anaconda Pictures, Green Anaconda Facts - National Geographic
It isn't the Daily Mirror, it's the Daily Mirror's report on what the BBC says. And while the BBC isn't a perfect source, they're better on science than any profit-driven cable show by a long shot. And the important thing here is that they have a specific, proven example - the 17-foot snake they caught. Do you have a proven example of a longer one? I've heard pretty reliable reports going up to 20-21 feet, but the stuff bigger than that is either from a LONG time ago or from incredibly unreliable sources. I would believe 25 feet, have a tough time believing anything bigger without seeing it.
If you are trying to get your science facts from random things an intern in Rupert Murdoch's Nat Geo typed into an "info page", you've already lost. I don't entirely blame you, because they pass themselves off as experts. But they're an entertainment cable channel. Do you think for a second that they have experts on snakes writing that stuff up? It was written by some communications intern who looked it up on the internet. They don't have a single example of a 20-30 foot anaconda documented by a third party, they just randomly say that they get that big.
In fact, back in 1910, Theodore Roosevelt (through the Bronx Zoo) offered a reward of $1,000 to anyone who could come up with a 30-foot snake. Since then the award has grown to $10,000, then to $50,000. In over 100 years the award has never been claimed.
As far as I know, the biggest snake the Bronx Zoo ever got via their challenge was a 21-foot python named "Samantha" that eventually grew to 26 feet.
And anacondas aren't even the longest snakes. Burmese Pythons and Reticulated Pythons both appear to get longer (though not heavy). And THEY'VE never even been conclusively proven to reach 30 feet.
You give me a 30-foot anaconda, measured taken to a university or a researcher or a zoo or any other reliable agency and measured by someone other than the person caught it and is publicizing it, and I'll believe you. Until then, it's as likely as the guys who run sub-4 second 40s measured on hand stopwatches.

@The Dankster such a polished expert on how to strangle an elephant with an anaconda. You know the exact thickness of elephant necks and all.
There are people who track elephants by putting radio collars on their necks. It took about 3 minutes to look up on the internet to see how big those had to be - about 10 feet for a male and 7 feet for a female, max 12-13 feet. It was actually a bit smaller than I would have guessed.

With no weapons what would be their game plan? Many of them would die trying to topple him, and then what?100/200 Brock Lesnars vs 1 Elephant
Someone needs to make that thread, could be an interesting debate

When I was a kid we use to have smaller anacondas (the yellow anaconda species, ours were only about 7 feet long), but there were larger green anacondas at the zoo my dad worked at, and he worked directly with the elephants. The idea that an anaconda could do anything to an elephant is beyond ridiculous. It wouldn't even get past the trunk and front feet - they're not that fast, and a 20' snake that's as fat as an anaconda can't just throw it's whole body 10 feet into the air onto an elephant's neck. If the anaconda even started to bother the elephant by attacking mouth first (which, of course, is the only attack possible), the elephant would stomp its midsection to pieces before it did anything else. And if it magically did get up there, it's not even wrapping itself around twice (lucky to get once) and it's not applying any serious pressure that would put an elephant in trouble.
What do they think the biggest thing an anaconda ever kills is? You find a 200 pound animal that's been killed by an anaconda, and I'll believe it, but be really surprised. I'd be unlikely to believe 500 pounds. And ya'all are trying to talk about 10,000.

These idiots are basing their anaconda nonsense off a JLo movie

Not that it really matters, but back in CAR I heard elephants were sometimes an extremely rare delicacy in the old days (like for really exceptionnal occasions). You're right in the sense that elephants are not in the regular diet though. Most probably we took massive Ls trying to chase them and fell back
The odds of an anaconda successfully, accurately, precisely, and INTENTIONALLY wrapping itself around the neck of an elephant is a million to 1. They usually go for the midsection of the animal and the elephant is way too big for that. It's also a million times more likely that the elephant will wedge it's trunk in between the anaconda and it's neck and simply pry it off. Not to mention the risk/reward for the anacondo is very low, if he misses that's his life
Better stick to them small mammals you b*tch azz snake

Man screw this! Elephant meat ain't that good!
P.s. I got the wrong flavored Twix
The only thing keeping the elephant from being the most dominant animal of all time is the fact that they are herbivores. If they ate meat, every animal in the kingdom would
Most of the real dominant animals are not really meat eaters
Elephants
Blue Whales
Rhinos
Water Buffalo
Wild Boars
Just think about it, if you are feeding on vegetation, you are out in the open, no f*cks given. 99% of meat eaters lie in wait and sneak up on their prey. In general meat eating tends to make you a b*tch azz sneaky muthaf*cka
Praising carnivores is a CAC thing, most ethnic cultures praised the herbivores, Native Americans, African Americans, Ancient Hebrews, Indians, etc herbivores always were held in high regard.
