It seems the general consensus is that we have an Elephant or Baku (Dream Eater) like species versus an experiment. Something not too cute but also not fugly. With big long tusks.

Give your people what they want

Graveyard: Just google poached elephant.

Nightmare: Still looking

Glacier:

Yes yes yes! WITH LONG TUSKS PLEASE!

I've seen this pop up as a topic in the past, and I gave my support then, as I will give my support now. An elephant would be really nice, please consider, staff~

Support. Even though I don't have any plans for an elephant, I know a lot of people would enjoy one.

Oh I am down for long tusks. Even like weird tusks. Kinda of like antlers or spiraled like a narwhal. I am just down for anything. Yes I gave support too in the past. Pretty sure though that the boards are now over 3 months old. Thanks for the support

I think so as well. I went to post on it a while ago I think and was worried I'd necro it. I'm glad you made a new topic about it in any case.

Surprised we do not have an elephant yet. I would like to see one.

There is an unofficial rule to some of the staff that necroing on this forum is allowed.

Oh, thank you for the confirmation!

At any rate I would love love love an elephant pet.

Omg yes. I love Asian Elephants, because they get this cute pink skin coloration as they age... <3

I'm not sure if all staff is on board with it and when this change occured but yeah I was told this recently.

I probably would not make an elephant pet but if they are cute enough, we shall see. Elephants are great and I think there could be a good variety for them even if it's just an elephant inspired pet, not exactly an elephant.

I think the closest we've got would be the rhino army military pet so I'm up for this! Having another huge pet would be awesome. I wouldn't want them to go too cute and adorable though. Give me a fierce elephant any day.

I am not surprised by that actually, but you know better safe than sorry. Yeah even if it is not cute, I need it to be at least elephant inspired so I can do a custom overlay. It bugs me if like the overlay is no way relate-able to the subeta art it covers.

Will add similar pictures to the first post even though I despise the color pink. Cause elephants!

Yeah but that is a clear rhino. Bring on the largest land mammal!

As long as it's not an experiment or uber kawaii, I'm totally up for it!

More diversity with animals and the like, sounds good to me! Something regal and powerful.... yet still sweet and lovely... I'm sure the amazing artists here can come up with something breathtaking.

I would love an elephant in a saheric kind of color scheme, like I know the common Bhakoru is already Saheric-colored but it would look nice ;^; Maybe more emphasis on the pinks or something instead

Glacier elephant should look like a woolly mammoth. I would die from love.

ETA: Graveyard would look like a poached elephant (if you don't minds going that morbid route like with that one terracoon), and Bloodred would have bloodied tusks like they're going out for poacher revenge. ETA: Nightmare (though it may cause an issue with female or genderless pets), would have the "musth" secretions that bull elephants have, which causes them to become aggressive. This could work for Bloodred as well.

I would probably make a pet with tusks, most probably when it came out in storm (so hopefully not experiment :P). Now to think of a good universal name for my new pet slot tomorrow night to prepare for this inevitability ;)

That is the spirit! Can't be avoided now.

I like your ideas in terms of specialty colors.

i would 100% love to see an elephant-based pet species (SPECIES, not a throwaway experiment, i wanna see it with all the good colors), especially if it was incorporated with elements of either a mammoth/mastodon, baku, or both

THIS YES PLEASE. But even if that doesn't happen, I'd love to see a little elephant pet of some sort. ;o;
