I used to want to be a zookeeper growing up, until I realized that zookeepers had to keep the zoo and not pet it. Naturally, my fascination with animals has stuck with me and I’m thrilled to introduce a fun new series around here: Animal Instincts. Today, I’m rounding up products that are inspired by elephants — not necessarily directly, but if you squint your eyes and look to the left a bit, you might see what I mean…
Enjoy!
