POPSIs That Elephant Running? Don't Bet on It Elephant Running A charging elephant might not look like it's merely walking, but that's exactly what it may be doing. Surprisingly, scientists don't agree on whether elephants run in the traditional sense. Now a new study splits the difference, suggesting that a rushing elephant may be walking and running at the same time. That's been a tough question to answer. It turns out there's a lot more involved in running than just taking one's feet off the ground. The legs also flex in particular ways that change an animal's center of gravity and the force it exerts on the ground. Scientists can measure these changes in humans and other animals by making them walk across force sensing plates. But just try doing that with a 4000-kilogram elephant.

POPSManaging Wildlife Populations I recommend reading the full article. My own feeling is whilst this is a success story generally, bringing the numbers of elephants in Sth Africa from virtual extinction into now finding a solution to manage their population growth. There is a huge irony that is much more subtle.
