  • looks like he took a cannon ball to the head.

  • the stories this elephant has to tell..

  • looks like he got shot and lived

  • It's probably a survivor of a poacher attack. I've also heard that some African dictator tried to kill off a bunch of elephants at some point. So it also might be possible that the elephant is a survivor of that incident.

  • i bet a bird lives in its head now

  • ahhhhh now this head holed elephant will come in my dreams and will scare me

  • the place tho hole is, is more likely a gun shoot, saw some like this on animal plannet

  • i hope the hole is not due to the cause of an animal called human as its sickening to think... why would anyone harm an elephant...

  • It's a blow hole....dumbasses

    

  • what an ass to do that your going to hell

  • Government experiment, they extracted the elephants brain because they heard he saw Osama and an elephant never forgets. THANK YOU ELEPHANT FOR FINDING BIN LADEN!

  • from 50 cal. bullet

  • Awww poor baby :-(

  • thats the air intake for its turbocharger.

  • chuck norris skull fucked that elephant

  • O.O It must be a spear or a bullet shot.

  • @Ezex01 A spear??? I hope you're kidding!

  • @mattsnow81 No, I'm not. You gotta see animal planet... I saw in a documental an elephant with a spearhead stuck right where this elephant has that hole.

  • @Ezex01 The hole is very big, it would have to be a spear thrown by a catapult :0

  • @mattsnow81 African man's arms are just like catapults.

  • @Ezex01 You made me lol. Indeed, these arms are powerful, or maybe it is a new elephant fad, just like piercing? Other elephants think he is so cool! :D

  • From Scumbag hunters maybe?

  • The hole is left of the target area hunters aim for. Could have been a poorly aimed shot.

  • hu durp

  • Cup holder?

  • Chuck Norris sneezed on it

  • People aren't necessarily making fun of the elephant in a way that shows they are glad the elephant is hurt. It's a joke for the sake of humor in a sad moment, making a joke on this doesn't mean you agree with the poachers or w/e who did this to the poor elephant.

  • It's a Whalephant!

  • i hope it s not becuase of poching

  • I agree. It's hard to understand how some people can be so cruel.

  • all those people who dare to make jokes about this thing and other - more or less - similar things deserve what follows: for a fistful seconds - let us say..10 seconds? - they deserve TO EXPERIENCE WHAT THE POOR CREATURE EXPERIENCE, I.E. SUFFERS:ALL THE PAIN AND THE EVIL THAT THE CREATURE IS LITERALY FORCED TO FEEL.

  • @KeltDevAngel

    Huh?

  • braindamage elephants

  • Why are you people making jokes about this? This isn't funny. The poor thing has a hole in his head and he's probably partly blind. It ticks me off to see people making jokes about this. True, it probably happened from another elephant and happened as a part of nature, but it's still not funny. How would you people like to walk about with a hole in your head, partly blind?!

  • it must have been a fight tusk to tusk got a hole in there while fighting so passed out got up and was sad =(

  • he not part dolphin he used to be a unicorn and then he fighted this other unicorn and lost his horn

  • It's way better then a hole with a elephant in its head ?

  • He can put peanuts with his snout directly into his brain. Talk about brainfood, huh :D

  • @MrOrmanley trunk, but yes, i agree with your theory :)

  • how come it skiped 6 it went457

  • Modern warfare an nube tubes don't mix

  • daww. D:

  • birth defect or he was pronged in a fight with another bull

  • @myke4750

    Pronged in a fight with another bull seems the most likely. He's a big bastard. Probably another tried to tackle him for position of ' top dog ' - so to speak.

    Looks like the other guy lost...

  • poor animal, :(

  • Ha ha "if I only had a brain"

  • that hole on the elephant an orca hole

  • let me guess his name is UNIhole.

  • OMG GENETIC MUTATION MAKING IT HAVE A BLOW WHOLE

  • i think that may be a birth defect

  • @mongolenpup, do you live in Africa? Because tat comment about elephant deliberatly killing people in revenge is NOT true! I live in Africa, I spent A LOT of time with elephants, so I would know. Elephants attack and kill for reason's human's cannot see, like if they are maybe to close to a calf etc, or if the human prevoked it.

    That elephant in the clip I would say is Mafunyane, one of the Magnificent Seven, but I could be wrong, since the tusks are not large enough

  • cowl induction hood piece!!!

  • I bet it's from fighting when it was younger.

  • I wonder if rain gets in?Hmmmm

  • a dum-dum bullet ?

  • Who Did This And.......... WHY ?

    Poor Animal.

    Human Beings are the REAL ANIMALS!

  • @EkereGbe ... ever think that the hole looked like a tusk like depression... yeah didn't think so lets just assume its a person and not something more rational.

  • @vampuricknight1 I actually didnt think the depression was another tusk.. I just thought it was a poacher inflicted injury... It saddens my heart to see these poor innocent animals been poached and killed in their natural habitat by some deranged "ANIMALS" who call themselves human beings..

  • @EkereGbe Elephants have always been known for being very rough during mating season... i'd bet it was more a natural injury than a man made one... Oh and i find it very sad that people comdemn others for hurting elephants when it is humans who also stop them... further more if you were put in the position of shoot this elephant in order to sell its tusks to feed you and your starving people for years, chances are you would do it though i'm sure you'd swear that you wouldn't.

  • @EkereGbe mostly because its likely you haven't been put in a dire situation of do or die...

  • @EkereGbe I cant imagine what weapon a human would have that would make a hole that big without killing the elephant. I assumed it was a natural thing because anything that an elephant poacher has would kill the elephant but wouldnt make a hole that big

  • @EkereGbe u and half the comment are those freak bag animal lovers if a human kills it or not its gonna die of old age, gets hit by a car, another animal kills it, so shut the f u c k up i hunt i kill f u c k in g animals so do thousands and millions of hunters tv shows about hunting if u dont like it stop it u will never win how bout chickens after they lay there eggs they kill them and i bet u u eat chinken, steaks and every thing someone kils them and once again STFU and get a life

  • @BUCKINATORCHRIS..Why swearing at me for my comment. My comment above wasnt refered to you, my friend... Your rambling and incoherent statement is really difficult to comprehend. Sorry, i think you are really the one that needs to get a life....INSTEAD OF HIDDING BEHIND YOUR COMPUTER AND SWEARING AND ATTACKING PEOPLE FOR THEIR " RIGHT TO EXPRESS THEIR OPINION AND FREEDOM OF SPEECH " As much as you got the right to air your opinion..if you dont have any sensible thing to say just keep quiet.

  • @BUCKINATORCHRIS look dude stop swearing and for a matter of fact i bet half of the ppl who commented are vegetarians includeing me and how would u like it if an elephant came up and killed you with a gun all theyed say is what you said!

  • @horseluverification

    Why are you people TALKING about this? Its just a video of an Elephant with a natural injury! Whats with all this random arguing that isn't even related to the video??

  • He needs this attention like a hole in the head

  • that is really really weird

  • Just a mosquito bite gone bad that`s all.

  • O.o

  • must have ben a headshot by some son of a biatches

  • @wkkimmy no dumbass it's likely from a fight with another bull elephant, they gore each other with their tusks when they fight during mating season...nothing like reading the information about the video. Besides, a gunshot wound would likely not leave a smooth hole like that, it'd be more chewed up looking.

  • @xeokym A bullet hole is smaller and the elephant wouldn't be walking after being shot there ...

  • @pim1234 that's exactly what I said - it likely WASN'T a bullet wound. I think you grossly misinterpreted my comment. That being said, there are a lot of animals & people who have survived perfectly fine after being shot in the head, it's not necessarily fatal 100% of the time. Besides, it all depends on the distance the bullet had to travel. It loses velocity the farther away, and a bullet shot from a distance could punch a hole in the skull yet still not injure the brain at all.

  • @xeokym I wasn't arguing with you, I agreed

  • @pim1234 Then we don't have any problems! ;0)

  • DAMNN NATURE YOU SCARY!!!

  • Y bother making a video at all... its cool and all but it would be better if it took up like a minute or even half a minute.

  • haahahhaaaaah

  • Poor thing. No way this could have been an unsuccessful headshot from a gun? They use very big, very fast bullets with copper and steel jackets for a reason. I've heard of poachers using underperforming guns to try and take big game, I hope this elephant wasn't a victim of such

  • its an intercooler :DDDD

  • u know this elephant has some fighting experience

  • Like are friend said he is part elephant part dolphin, i guess that make him a elephin!

  • his a old elephant in any fight he got this from other elephant

    that was stipid

  • He's part dolphin

  • @rcus98 I just pissed myself laughing

  • @rcus98 so are you saing he is an elephin?

  • @jackieevans yes, yes i am

  • @rcus98 hahah asshole:)

  • @conjoy15 on his head so can he like eat his crap? :/

  • Probably punctured its sinus cavity. Ive seen two horses like this - completely fine but a definite hole. One got a bad infection. The owner was VERY inexperienced and I urged her to call the vet but she wouldnt, so I started treating him. 4 days later she called the vet because she thought it would be a good idea to get some meds to keep his temperature down (DUH!). The vet said if I hadnt started treating him when I he, he would have died. I was proud of myself lol.

  • The attacking elephant might have been killed because his tusks that high his throat would have been exposed to this one's tusks.

  • Not even the mighty 500 nitro express would leave a hole that big. It must have been another bull elephant and they were fighting.

  • if that been caused by opponent,maybe other elefant but i mean sports hunter who have done bad shot and got stumped by this.

    "if its sport hunter i hope he got tusk up to a.. " last word could be ARSE !! but i avoid sucha language.

  • i think it from a preveouse elephant fight

  • Did another elephant stab him with its tusks? His eye is damaged too as you said in the video.

  • this is at kruger national parc SA

    and hes perfectly fine cant remember why he had this whole...i pretty sure it was a bone problem but nothin deadly

  • it escaped from the local mini golf course.

  • lol

  • that's where he keeps his smokes...lol

  • Elephants don't smoke you idiot.

    They dip.

  • Lmfao....Good one!

  • lol another elephant tried sucking out his brain juice ! thats what really happend

  • OMG - Thats so sad ..

  • thats so sad!!!

  • She needed that injury like a hole in the head! ...wait...

  • head like a hole

  • aww..poor fing!

  • :-)

  • this elephant was caught by pouchers that swings heavy metal from a tree, she rare to see in the kruger national park.

  • Amazing! Another 7 second video! Make it a 1 second video next time for extra awesomeness!

  • @saradamsmc

    LOL

  • this hole must be an injury when fighting with other bull elephant..

  • Lee Harvey Oswald is at it again

  • haha that made me lmfao

  • wtf?!?!

  • BOOM headshot

  • It has a hole in its head because it's a Republican. Duh.

  • wow your an idiot

  • Leave it alone!!! It just had brain surgery.

    XD

  • Uh, c'mon guys! The only weapon that could do that big hole is a 30mm cannon :D

  • nah lol i would say a 50cal magnum lol they can blow a hole through concrete walls half metere thick

  • My bet is on another elephant's tusk.

  • I'd say the E-11 Blaster Rifle from Star Wars.

  • That made my freaking day! But I must beg to differ, the sheer size of the hole makes me think it may have been either a T-21 light repeating blaster or a Wookie Bowcaster, but I may be mistaken.

  • hahaha

  • Too much Cypress Hill and some of that good "vegetation" from Africa. Ha-ha.

  • hole looks big for a rifle hit, my guess is it got in a fight with another elephant, unbelieveable the damage those tusks can do

  • I agreed with you. It seems that hole made because of a fight with another bull elephant.

  • i think you're right too a rifle that big woulda killed it i don't even think there is a rifle other than maaaybe a .50 that could do that but then that would probably kill it

  • it is the 50. BMG caliber m107 Barrett that could do that, but it would also kill the elephant

  • ya what i'm saying is i dont think there is a rifle that could knock a depression in its head like that that the elephant would live i'm damn sure theres rifles that could kill hit and do that hahaha but ya i know what your sayin bro

  • Maybe the 20mm lahti? haha lol

  • Its obvious what happened to the elephant! Aliens came down to earth sucked the elephant into their spacecraft took out its brain and stuck one of their comrades brains in! Now they are spying on us through elephant skin!

  • probably some rpg lol

  • lol i thought u ment 'Role Playing Game" for a second.
