Yes, certainly majestic. I named him De Gaulle, for some reason.
The answer to your first question (he or she?) seems obscured by the photograph, and I was not inclined to get closer for a good hard look.
The second answer is: Magenta? Gee, I just don't know; but I kinda like the colors, though. I was shooting Kodak UC 100 ISO film, not digital. The negative was developed by a local Kodak lab. However, it was a drizzly day - the light rain may have saturated the colors a bit. These elephants are not grayish (like the Indian elephants). And the ground on their pad is reddish to the naked eye. Aside from that, I can only speculate that the lab technicican may have made a "creative choice" and developed the film that way before scanning to the cd.
Here's another elephant (this one is a she) that I posted earlier. This one was photographed with Fuji Reala ISO 100 film on a sunny morning, from a slightly backlit angle. This a younger elephant, standing on a solid, coral-colored surface, picking at some hay strewn in front of it. I had this shot developed by mpix.com. Maybe I should just stick with mpix, and simply wait a little longer for the prints and the jpeg cd to arrive in the mail.
