Solution and Explanation

In the preface to the elephant story, he referred to elephants as ""huge well-fed beasts."" He claimed that the elephant began to wander after breaking free from the lumber yard, trampling on shrubs and tearing up wild creepers. When it reached the town's main thoroughfare, it destroyed every vendor of clothing, mud pots, and fruits. It then made its way into a schoolyard where kids were having fun. It uprooted the plants, took out the football goalpost, destroyed the volleyball net, and flattened the water drum. Because they were all so terrified, the teachers and children ascended to the school building's terrace. According to Iswaran, he was studying in the junior class at that time. He grabbed a cane from the hands of one of the teachers and ran into the open. The elephant continued grunting and stamping its feet. It looked frightening. However, he moved slowly towards it. When the elephant was ready to rush towards him, he moved forward and whacked its third toenail. It looked stunned and then collapsed.

This story does not appear to be plausible.
