One night while hunting in Zim we stumbled into a herd of elephants while they were feeds on a hill side and park on the back side of the hill..they gave us a look but for the most part remained very calm and had really no issues..

A few days later we were tracking a lion and again came across a lone bull..he saw us, was immediately pissed off and started coming at us..we split up and started running away..we ran about 150 yards..regrouped, looked back and he was still coming..we ran again...stopped --he was coming..after the 3rd sprint he gave it up..

Think there are many factors but if they are in musk or if there are a lot of poachers around to harass them, they are a little more unsettled and more apt to charge..we had a herd with several tuskless in it one day that were mock charging, hollering and running back to the trees for about 15 minutes..was great to catch on film..
