musth

1 Researchers are also curious whether changes in musth over time could offer clues about what contributed to mammoths’ demise and eventual extinction roughly 4,000 years ago.

2 Bull elephants in musth can be aggressive and attack.

3 What will happen, usually, is that the musth period goes on for three to four months in bull elephants.

4 If Greg was fit enough to be in musth, he was doing pretty well despite the permanent hole in his trunk.

5 When the elephants come out of their musth, the mahouts believe the elephants have forgotten their commands.

6 Woolly mammoths males had musth glands, which are important in modern elephant reproduction today.

7 The elephants are only chained, said Visit, when males become aggressive due to a rise in reproductive hormones, a natural state known as musth.

8 Perhaps the pure novelty of Ozzie in musth caught his attention, or perhaps it's like snake venom - a young snake injects much more of it than an adult does.

9 Mammoths With Musth Auchus also analyzed powder from a male African elephant and found annual testosterone spikes consistent with musth, as expected.

10 Previous studies documenting young bulls in musth in the absence of older bulls haven't reported abnormally high levels for musth in young bulls, but something definitely concerned our resident king of musth, Smokey.

11 Her early research focused on musth, a periodic reproductive condition in male elephants that is characterized by testosterone surges and heightened aggression.

12 They compare the cannibalistic courtship of the praying mantis to a bad Tinder date, and their disquisition on the male elephant’s hormonal state of “musth” is headlined “Musth-Dos.”

13 And some fossils have preserved evidence of the male-on-male violence that typically happens during musth.

14 Witnesses said the animal showed some signs of musth two days before and was not following the handler’s instructions in the moments leading up to the attack.

15 In addition, the insides of his back legs were wet from urine dribbling - the definitive sign of musth.

16 There must be something particularly distinctive about a young bull in musth, or at least about Ozzie, as Smokey never really bothered before with the whereabouts of adult musth bulls like Mike or Beckham.

17 The frenzied elephant was in musth.

被激怒的大象处于疯狂状态.

18 When Greg was on his regular routine, he'd show up with the Boys' Club on one day and Smokey and other musth bulls the next - an elephantine gentlemen's agreement of sorts.

19 Mike is one of those wonderful mentors who fills the gaps, even while in musth.

20 Secretions from the elephant's temporal glands can be seen on its back legs, a strong indicator of musth and a sign intended to simultaneously attract females and warn other males to stay away.
