Who was the most gallant

In a forest, there was a king of the forest (the lion) who felt great. To legalize his greatness, then the lion asked the majority of forest dwellers.
The lion asked, "Hey gorilla, who is most handsome in this forest?"
"You, my lord," replied the gorilla,
The lion is pride to hear that. Then he met with a bull. "Hey bull, who is the most handsome and great in this forest?" he asked again.
"Of course you are," replied the bull.
Hearing the answers from some of the animals he met, was arrogant the lion.
Then he walked back, and in the middle of the road he met with an elephant.
"O elephant, which is the most handsome and powerful in this forest?" the arrogant lion asked the elephant.
But the elephant did not answer, and unexpectedly a lion, elephant straight beat and trample until battered lion. Then the elephant passed away the lions.
With a body that was battered, the lion said to the elephant, if do not know the answer, so do not be mad.
