Let me go ask Ella the Elephant.

I don't know. Did your mom get cancer? Answer that and you'll answer your question.
Eta: actually, that was rude. Sorry, OP. You're a good dude so I'll be lay off the mom jokes.

If I read between the lines of this study they're saying eating elephant meat prevents cancer.

Dinosaurs had it. I'm sure once an elephant would get it, it'd never forget it.

Cancer occurs in every species. It's not a disease, it's caused by a genetic malfunction (a mutation, but not the science fiction kind). Error in the genetic processing that results in cancer cells, which then multiply like normal cells, but don't die, so they become tumors

I'm presently developing a human acclimated p53 gene. My potion will be ready for procto-induction by year's end.

And the p53 gene which they discuss in this article has been a target of cancer research for decades. We already know that if you can regain function of p53 in cells with altered p53, tumor growth is inhibited and even stopped. However, knowing this and making it functional and safe in humans is hard as shite.
The naked mole rat also provides insight into "natural" cancer prevention

This team inserted elephants' p53 genes into mouse cells and found that those cells behaved just like elephants and self-destructed when exposed to DNA-damaging drugs
How many titles will bama fans claim because of this?
