During the 90s I watched a live-action movie about an orphan boy living like a savage and befriending an elephant in a djungle. In one scene the elephant, or the elephant's parent, was shot to death by either hunters or ivory thiefs. I think the boy was retrieved to society in the end.
It think it was an American movie from either 80s or 90s and that is everything I remember. It wasn't any of the Djungle Book adaptions.

It's been a long time since I've seen it, but possibly "A Far Off Place". link

Maya (1966) < From the 60s, NOT either the 80s or 90s.

This is from several years ago (not the 80s or 90s), but...My Lucky Elephant (2013)?

I'm having no luck with either the 80s or 90s, but here's a series from the 70s...Elephant Boy (1973)?

Jungle Boy looked very similar but no elephant was shot in it. It's none of the Tarzan or Jungle George movies.
