Pictures of the day: 26 January 2012 - Telegraph (via apsies):

Working aquatic-elephants like Rajan used to be a regular sight in the  Andaman Islands, south of India, but this 60-year-old five tonne Asian  elephant is the last of his kind. Thanks to the introduction of motor  boats and other energy-saving technology, Rajan no longer needs to swim  miles between islands to work for his masters, but can now enjoy  swimming purely for pleasure.

Reminds me of a Spanish nursery rhyme that we used to sing in school: Un elefante se balanceaba sobre la tela de una araña…
PS: Previous LV animals.

I will never, ever poke you on Facebook but if I am ever so lucky as to own an elephant someday (this would be part of the India retirement plan), I may ask her to poke you as you walk by our house.
Poke!

Lions and clowns and elephants, oh my! The Discovery Museum brings us some kinda-creepy, definitely cool photos of old English carnivals. Get that old-timey fairground feeling here.
