(1) Not surprisingly, Roman rulers often chose this pachydermal symbol of majestic light and omnipotence to appear on their coins.(2) It was a broadside that left permanent scar tissue, but he was nothing if not a pachydermatous survivor.(3) The Government also asked private owners of four elephants in the city to send their pachyderms to the camp.(4) In that short statement, Took came to better understand the very genuine affection and high regard Thai people held for these giant pachyderms whose ancestors had played no small part in helping build the Kingdom.(5) Photographs of the pachyderms , their habitat, camp management, day-to-day activities, aspects of reproduction, disease, resistance and man-animal conflicts were exhibited at the gallery.(6) The station then lay well within the domain of the pachyderms i.e., the elephant corridor while migrating from one end of the Western Ghats to the other.(7) In Africa and Asia, elephant attacks appear to be becoming more common as human development pushes the pachyderms into ever smaller and more fragmented living spaces.(8) So far the red peppers appear to be an easy, cost-effective means of warding off pachyderms without harming them, Osborn says.(9) It also can be a focal point, as with the smooth and gray pachydermic monoliths of the European Beech, in the garden the year round.(10) We went to a performance where trained pachyderms put on an amazing demonstration of skill and talent, walking tightropes, dunking basketballs with their trunks and standing on their heads.(11) A number of marked cutaneous changes were observed during the follow-up period: the skin currently appears thickened, indurated, redundant, and grayish, with a pachydermatous appearance.(12) The duo, involved in rescue and rehabilitation of a number of elephants, gave a presentation on nature of elephants and said that the pachyderms are only reactive and never proactive when it comes to man-animal conflict.(13) And that doesn't even include Camby's energetically youthful presence on a Knicks team that's old, older, oldest, playing at a pachydermic pace that borders on the geriatric.(14) In consequence of the great alterations in the skin of the limbs, which are covered with ulcerated tubercles, crusts, and cicatrices, the pachydermic state of skin which gives the limbs the appearance of elephantiasis, and of the lesions of the peripheral nerves which are present at this time, the sense of touch is abolished.(15) His love for pachyderms developed further when he undertook study on man - elephant conflict.(16) Anne Savage, the park's senior conservation biologist, says understanding how pachyderms use vocalizations to communicate will help people better manage them in the wild and in captivity.
