Elephant mandrill

The elephant mandrill is one of the many creatures that were a part of the Ba Sing Se Zoo.

Anatomy
Like most animals, the elephant mandrill is a hybrid species. It is a large quadruped with the body of an elephant, and the colorful head of a mandrill, a baboon-like primate. Its stocky body, with the exception of its elephant-like legs, is covered with shaggy brown fur.

Connection
The elephant mandrill has the shaggy fur coat and distinctive face of a mandrill. The male mandrill has the most vividly colored face of any mammal: A scarlet band of hairless skin extends down from between its eyes, flaring out to cover its nostrils. It is flanked by vertical bands of blue skin on either side. Its lower jaw is adorned with an orange-yellow beard. The elephant mandrill's connection to the elephant is its massive size and its legs.

Behavior
The elephant mandrill behaves more like a peaceful dog at times, but when angered or confused, it acts like a wild elephant or rhino.
