The Unethical Elephant Hitherto the establishment of road lines has not only been difficult but not essential because of the very fine wire- ices installations in that country. These installations were established before the War in 1913, Telegraph service has been made difficult, owing the fact that the Sultan of Sulu
made onze
present of a fine pair of elephants to Bornvo. The elephants grew and prospered. Unfortunately they are not at all ethical when it comes to uprooting or leaning against telephone or telegraph poles.
With the advent of civilization, and the opening up roads, particularly be- tween and around the four principal barbours, the native fauna
of the jangles has retreated back into the forest.
Elephants, small
panthers, monkeys and Orang Outangs, and the riknoceros still abound in great num- bera but they, along with the head huntern and. the spear- of the Malay, Murut, und Dusun tribes have decided to live in the wilds of the tropical Jungles and leave the foreigner more ar less unmolested.
