Who has the odor of a crow, ape, ass, camel, or cat, or of urine, dung, or putrefaction, who slays (other) elephants, and is violent at night, who likes (to eat) sour things, meat, and blood, is undisciplined (avinayī), and shows no gratitude, of refractory behavior, such a one is an ogre in character”.
