Recently, reader Danielle B. said:

“Do you realize your elephant is pooping? Are there by any chance any non-pooping elephants in your collection? Other than that the photography tour was fun, creative, and a beautiful collection of photography!”

Danielle, yes, we have several other, non-pooping elephants in our collection. I’ll show them to you right now!

This is the whole collection of hand carved wooden elephants from Thailand.

This is the elephant in question. At first we didn’t know what it was doing, but the tail and the back legs made it pretty clear.

This is a mother and child elephant pair, carved out of a single block of wood.

The opposite side of the pair.

Details of the baby elephant.

This is our stand-alone baby elephant, recently purchased at the same store where we got the pooping elephant.

The mother and 2 baby elephants.

This is the elephant that started our collection. When viewed in person, the skin texture is very lifelike.

So Danielle B., there you go – our entire collection of carved elephants!

Thanks for reading! We look forward to your comments and rating below!

I loved the pic of the elephant and it is good to see something different from the norm. I thought good entertainment value. I hope she never looks at my pictures on my blog.

Scratch and sniff that would be a classic.

Brunty, we liked the elephant also because it was so different than the normal poses that are carved. it took us a moment to realize what it was doing! haha! it was a fair question though. thanks Brunty.
