Bagheera is skeptical that Hathi will answer Mowgli's summons, but is surprised when he does so. </p><p>Mowgli tells Hathi of a story Buldeo once told, about an elephant that escaped from a trap and took revenge upon his captors by trampling their fields and villages. Hathi confirms Mowgli's suspicion that he was the elephant in the story. Mowgli wants Hathi to destroy Buldeo's village as well, but to take more time doing so. </p><p>Over the course of several weeks the village fields are invaded by herds of <a href="/wiki/Wild_boar" title="Wild boar">wild pigs</a>, <a href="/wiki/Deer" title="Deer">deer</a> and <a href="/wiki/Water_buffalo" title="Water buffalo">buffalo</a>, the livestock is harried by wolves, and the elephants destroy the grain storage bins. While all this is happening Mowgli keeps well out of sight so that the villagers will not suspect his involvement. Finally, as the rainy season sets in, the elephants tear down the village huts and any villagers who have not already left flee for their lives. Six months afterward the wreckage has been completely swallowed by wild jungle and Mowgli's plan is complete. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="In_other_media">In other media</h2><span
