    1) Elephants have been found to fear cheese and flee at its smell, though the reason for this is still being researched (Sources F, B, C). 2) Studies over the past decade have explored this phenomenon among African and Asian elephants, though it is more common in African elephants (Sources G, H, J). 3) A recent report established that smell is how elephants detect cheese and large wrapped pieces are ignored (Source E). However, a new theory proposes elephants actually fear mice attracted to cheese, not the cheese itself, an idea that remains debated (Sources J, K, L).

    ELEPHANTS AND CHEESE: AN EXPLORATORY STUDY

    It is widely known that elephants fear cheese and will flee at the first whiff of it (see for
    example Elephants stampede, 2013). What is not yet well understood is why this phenomenon Source F

    occurs. For more than a decade academics have been researching this perplexing topic. Their work
    constitutes part of the booming new discipline known as pachydermo-fromagology, which is
    defined as “the study of elephant-cheese interactions” (Concise Oxford dictionary, n.d.). Source D

    That elephants fear cheese was an accidental discovery, published in a book by the noted
    Source B
    elephantologist Gary Coleman (2004 / Coleman, 2004). The story of the discovery is now famous,
    but worth repeating:
    After a hard morning following the herd, I had just sat down under a tree for lunch and unwrapped a
    particularly delectable chunk of cheddar sent up from the base camp. Suddenly I heard an enormous
    Source C,
    trampling sound, and when I looked up, the entire herd was gone.
    page 160
    (Coleman, 2008, p. 160)
    Coleman’s discovery, while dismissed at the time, was subsequently corroborated by other
    Sources G, and H
    researchers. Several studies (Gibson & Sturgess, 2009; Gibson et al., 2012) have confirmed the
    phenomenon, and that it occurs among both African and Asian elephants. The phenomenon is
    more typical, however, among African elephants (Gibson et al., 2012). A recent report by a Source H

    reputed institute (Elephant Research Institute, 2010) established that smell is the primary means Source E
    elephants detect cheese, and that they will ignore large pieces of cheese if tightly wrapped.
    Meanwhile a French cheese expert asserts on his blog that elephants do not flee from French
    Source I
    cheese, only the lesser cheeses of other nations (Gouda, 2012).
    Recently, a new theory has exploded on the scene and caused quite a stink. Based on several
    experiments, Maas (2013, p. 468) has claimed that in fact elephants do not fear cheese at all, but Source J,
    page 468
    instead fear the mice which are attracted to cheese. However, this theory called “the Maas Mouse
    Hypothesis” (MMH), has not yet been widely accepted. Elsewhere, a researcher from Harvard has
    published a series of articles denouncing the MMH (Sturgess, 2014a, 2014b), and the debate has Sources K and L

    even spilled over into the popular press (Achison, 2014). Source A
