The
centerpiece of this exhibit
experience is an outdoor art
installation called Elephachoo -- a life-size elephant
sculpture with a full repertoire of explosive,
wet sneeze effects. The
sculpture was styled after Indian soapstone carvings, and scaled to that of a
real bull elephant for close-up guest encounters.
In addition to extensive custom signage and architectural theming, this exhibit features numerous authentic and replica collections objects, uniquely displayed for guest interaction.
