Abstract
In this chapter, the authors position themselves as insider and outsider applying collaborative autoethnography to narrate their personal accounts of the elephant phenomenon in India. They also reflect on issues that have affected elephants in the interrelational world of human-elephant interactions. The authors write together as collaborative autoethnographers storying how human-elephant relationship differs between and across cultures and feelings. Yet, their intention is to deepen the understanding of that relationship through common standpoints for collectively shared actions.
