Panda Elephants on Parade

Evidently elephants aren't getting enough love in Thailand- where they are the national symbol. In protest of a new $20 million panda house, staff members of the Ayutthaya Elephant Kraal painted the pachyderms like pandas for some attention. The trunks still give them away, in my humble opinion- but they are clearly labeled 'panda' in case there is any confusion.
Imagine being a 4 year old, taken to the zoo to see elephants painted as pandas. Most people need to take psychedelic drugs to go on a trip like that.
