The new year rekindled my love for pygmy elephants.  There’s something so majestic and charming about shrinking something gigantic.

Yes, I really love pygmy elephants.

The pygmy elephant is an elegant creature, weighing at about 5000 tons and consuming under 10 lbs a day.  Throughout primative history the pygmy elephant has only been encountered twice, due to its ρίψη nature.  As a pioneer of Obscure Arts, I have decided to create the sport “Elephas maximus borneensis juggling”.

Conceptually sound, one person starts off with two pygmy elephants, or “PygElp” for short.  He/she then proceeds to throw the PygElps in a continuous circular fashion.  After a cycle has been established, similar to the principals of Jacks, the juggler will then reach for a 3rd PygElp and toss it within the throwing circle.  An experienced juggler will be able to reach the great quantity of even 7 PygElps, though that is word from me.

Yes, a PygElp will captivate the generations to come, until of course, it dies due to expotential human habitation and other reasons unbeknownst to me.  For the time being; however, let us just enjoy the presence of the docile creature.

Pygmy elephants are classified as cryptids, what that means to me—something scientists are too lazy to look.  CAFAR!
