It isn't silent, but it melts together with the D to form a special sound that is sometimes called retroflex. This happens in Standard Swedish whenever an R appears before an N, T, D, L or S (with S it sounds a bit like a 'sh' sound).

The n in elefanterna didn't sound like a retroflex n. Is it audio issue or is she saying it correctly?
