Before steel, before gunpowder — India had a secret weapon. And it walked on four legs.

In this premiere episode of Simply Wild, we explore the forgotten, massive role of the Indian elephant in shaping the subcontinent’s history.

From the ancient war manuals of Chanakya to the thunderous standoff at the Battle of Hydaspes, where Alexander the Great met his match, this isn’t just animal trivia — it’s empire-altering power, tusk-first.

We dive into elephant warfare, royal forests, the Hastyadhyaksha system, and one chilling truth:
Sometimes, history wasn’t written by kings. It was carved by giants.

🎙️ Hosted by Mansab – writer, researcher, and guy who believes history’s best characters weren’t always human.

🎧 Short. Wild. Unexpected.

This is where history gets wild — and the wild gets a history.
