उत्तर
The "master call" is a strange hissing, howling sound, as if a snake and a tiger were fighting each other, and one had to make that kind of noise in his ear. It takes five years to learn properly. It is the most important signal for an elephant to learn because if one is lost in the jungle and there is no way out, then the only thing to do is to give the master call and at once the elephant would pull down the trees in front of him with his trunk. This frightens all the animals away. The elephant keeps pulling down one tree after another. Soon you will find that he has made a road right through the jungle straight to your house.
