Elephant

Elephant from Tinga Tinga Tales is a tall, purple elephant with red, white, and black ears and toenails, and is the main character in the episode "Why Elephant Has a Trunk". In the story, he initially had a short, stubby nose instead of a trunk and was a very "pongy" and dirty elephant, but his nose grew into a trunk after an incident with a crocodile, which he used to become clean.  * Appearance: Elephant is purple, the tallest of the main characters, and has red, white, and black on his ears and toenails. * Story: His defining story is how he got his trunk. He used to have a small, stubby nose that made him smelly and unable to swat flies. * Transformation: After an event involving a crocodile biting his nose, the other animals helped him get a long, trunk-like nose. * Character: The story of how he got his trunk illustrates the moral that "good always comes out of something bad" and emphasizes the importance of honesty and helping others. * (Uh I got this from google sooooooooo)
