Elephant gift....

....from one country's ruler to another.......I would think that this enormous elephant scared the living daylights out of pretty much any one who saw him for the first time!!!!!

Lovely and interesting shot. He does look very real. Can't imagine how or why he was placed there. Where is the place?

@jamibann Tower of London......so much to see there.....I had not been there since I was a kid.....probably in the early 60's.....

@sangwann This is inside the Tower of London......there are a few metal statues around there to show different 'exotic' animals they had in the 'Kings menagerie'.....(see yesterday's pic of monkeys) It was the done thing apparently for overseas rulers to gift other rulers with animal gifts.
