My first reaction: that doesn't look like real elephant skin, it looks too man-made. But it must just be artifacts of how the picture was taken. Undertoad always verifies that everything he posts is completely accurate, right? ;-) So then I really believed it was real, and my eyes were just making things up.

I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one who immediately thought it looked fake. But I still enjoyed it for the few minutes when I thought I must be wrong and that it really was a baby elephant.
