No lions would dare to attack the bull elephant, even if there were more than a hundred of them. These animals are so respected in nature, even a herd of dozens of hippo's will separate and make way when a bull elephant wants to cross their river or drink at their watering hole. Nothing dares to mess with them, because messing with a bull elephant means death in the wild.
