The world needs more of these types of celebrations - selfless, non-commercial, uncontrovercial....
From the BBC:
"Elephant Day" is marked in Chiang Mai province in northern Thailand with
a feast for the elephants of banana trees, sugarcane and fruit.
From my mom (who it turns out did not discover the Large-billed reed warbler):
The Elephant Conservation Center
doesn't let tourists in on National Elephant Day because it's a vacation for
the elephants. Thailand used to have a cool flag with a white elephant
against a red background. Can you believe they changed it to mimic the super
powers, so now it's boring red, white and blue.
