Known as the "Elephant King," he developed an innovative technique for capturing wild elephants by driving herds into a kheddah (a fenced enclosure), replacing the traditional method of pit traps. Sanderson's method proved highly effective, and he demonstrated it to Prince Albert in 1889. He wrote Thirteen Years Among the Wild Beasts of India, recounting his adventures.
