Explanation:

- The man did not intend to invite the elephant and leave the house, he only wanted to help the elephant keep away from the rain
Answer:
The dispute arose among both on the subject of area of the hut.
Explanation:
An elephant once formed a bond with human. When a rainstorm struck, the elephant went to him, who lived in a small hut near the forest.
He requested if he might put his trunk inside the cabin to keep it out of the rain. The man allowed him to put his trunk.
Soon, the elephant moved his head in the hut and hurled the man out stating that his skin was harder and he can stay out. Also there wasn't enough space for both he can only stay in and shelter his fragile skin.
The man got angry when he saw elephant's behaviour towards him. The animals in the surrounding forest heard the disturbance and came to see what was wrong.
So, the elephant behaviour provoked a dispute between them.
