Okay, it was awesome. The elephants were very wrinkly and cool. We got to touch them so in case you were ever wondering what an elephant feels like, I will describe it now: The trunks felt rough, like you would expect an elephant to feel like. The inside of the trunk, well were it grabs stuff to put into its mouth, kind of slimey, it left brown goo on your hands, or cheek if one so chose to get "kissed" by the elephant. I choose not to. The back of the ears felt like leather. The body had these little hairs all over it so it was kind of hairy/furry feeling. The elbows and knees were hard and rough and calloused. The most interesting part (besides the leathery ear) was the tail, which was like plastic, the black "fur" that came out was like little plastic sticks. It was not what I was expecting. Also as you can see from the above photo, the have hold a ridiculous amount of pee in them. And the last thing on here will be a video of an elephant trumpeting, it also made a grumbling sound to talk but I didn't catch that. They were very well trained.
