Joke pivots on the interpretation of the word 'address'. In this context it would mean 'how do you handle this problem'.

However, it can also mean 'what is the proper way to refer to something (Ms, Mrs, Your Majesty, etc).

The joke is instead of addressing meaning handle the dangerous situation it means what is the proper way to refer to the elephant.
