After an elephant died, there might be some "terrifying" situations. From a physiological point of view, the corpse of an elephant may expand rapidly after death. There were reports that the elephant swelled into a balloon three days after death, its genitals became the fifth leg, and its stomach exploded directly after being cut.

This survival rule sounded cruel, but it could actually be understood as an objective fact. In the context of the universe, competition and conflict between civilizations were inevitable. If a civilization exposed its existence, it would be discovered and attacked by other civilizations, and it would be wiped out.
