the texture of an elephant's skin is remarkable.

Yep, a few times. I've also ridden on camels numbers of times and when I was a toddler, I used to ride on my grandma's fat dalmation.

Yes, twice, once as a child at a zoo in my home town, and then as an adult on holiday in Thailand.

I have, and also a camel. Both were pretty neat. The elephant was a young African elephant, not the usual Indian elephant. Elephants are cool, they have such expressive eyes and trunks.

I would like to pet a whale.

I have! Being the awesome Aunt I am I 'kidnapped' (picked him up and took him with me) my nephew and payed for him to do it too because I didn't want to go alone (and I figured better the kid that would force me to go through with it than anyone else). We loved it and wanted to go again but my older brother said no and made us move on (and we got to see/pet a lion cub!).

I have pictures of Jare (the nephew), myself, and my little brother riding the elephant somewhere around here... they were taken by my older brother and his common-law wife (who actually didn't know what I stole their kid for till he called out to them - 'mom, dad gunna ride an elfent' -, they just assumed it would be something crazy-and-fun for him) it was definitely an experience I would love to do again.

*mind esplodes*

that would be crazy awesome!! i would probably faint just being near the beast. i'd be so fascinated that i may forget to breathe.

i've only ridden horses. :( horses are still awesome, though.
