We’re really enjoying having a taste of the jungle in various spots around London at the moment. The London Elephant Parade is bringing smiles to people’s faces all over the capital.

And here’s a great interview with Sacha Jafri, the painter behind the Lion King-inspired elephant statue for the parade. We’re big fans of that particular London musical, and we love this homage to the show.

Have you spotted this particular painted pachyderm on the streets of London? Let us know where he is in the comments below!

And don’t forget to share your London Elephant Parade pics in the Visit London flickrpool.

So far my favourite is the one outside Regis House (opposite Monument Station on the north bank of London Bridge), which is decorated with peacock feathers. There are also silver ones, floral ones and a red bumpy one with tiny elephants inside it (check out the video) dotted around More London.

Which elephants have you seen and where’s your favourite? Don’t forget to add your photos to the Visit London flickrpool and we’ll show them off in a blog post at a later date…
