岹ṇḍ (वालदण्�) refers to the “stick-like tail� (of certain elephants), according to the 15th century ٲṅgī composed by Nīlakaṇṭha in 263 Sanskrit verses, dealing with elephantology in ancient  India, focusing on the science of management and treatment of elephants.—[Cf. chapter 3, “on unfavorable marks”]: �6. One who roams at night overly excited, or early in the morning cries out in excitement at the (song of the) birds, who is always trying to fly up into the air, or fanning with his stick-like tail (岹ṇḍ), who incessantly lifts up his fore-limbs, and who constantly gets out of the control of his driver: know that such a one is a rogue elephant, and must not be taken, even if he is rich in quantities of all excellences�.
