Elephant paints self-portrait???

[azerica]

Hmmmmm...wonder how many beatings it took to get her to paint without them using that piece of painful equipment the bullhook? I was also disturbed by the people riding eles in the background. We all know how vicious the mahouts treat their charges. Eles in the wild have been found to doodle with stcks and are very intelligent and creative, but that is because the want to be, not forced to be. [steps off soapbox]
