That far out? I'd go with bloating as well. But, elephants are known to get caught in rivers and swept out to sea pretty regularly in Asia.
This was one story, but I vaguely remember reading about them further out and one of the ships making the difficult decision to put them down because they couldn't be rescued.
Wild elephants brought ashore after rescue involving navy divers, ropes and flotilla of boats to tow themHong Kong, but from Indiana/Florida

Clearly, if happened modern elephant now, musta happened many, many times over eons….
Alternative theory to currents sweeping out and away, maybe great prehistoric fish grabbed deluxe dinner, dropped tusk toothpick on way open seas!Last edited by Cecilia; 11-28-2021, 05:40 AM.

Depth probably helped preserve it. It could have bloated and floated. Less than two hundred miles isn't that far. Maybe a little less with shoreline change since then. Another possibility is that it was somebody's cargo and got dropped overboard.California

Apparently, mammoths often went swimming. You can usually tell that from their trunks.I keep six honest serving-men (they taught me all I knew); Their names are What and Why and When and How and Where and Who.
