I think that's the wrong interpretation by quite a ways. No hunter cut a tongue out to injure an animal so it would die (the purpose of the trunk thrusts). Nobody gets close enough to cut a tongue out without the animal being dead already.

An animal can fall and not die for many hours; the elephant might be incapacitated but not be dead.
