Creature Anatomy with Terryl Whitlatch: Lesson 6: Elephant Anatomy

Week six was all about elephant anatomy. It's amazing looking beneath the surface at how adapted the elephants' skeletons are in order to carry their huge bulk. I can't quite get my head around how they essentially walk on their tip-toes! I spliced a Red River Hog with an Indian Elephant to create quite a big friendly giant. I will pursue this idea further - I want to see how it looks in the beautiful rust colour of the Red River Hog.
