This monstrous robot elephant is known simply as "Great Elephant" and is made of mostly recycled steel, and wood. It's incredibly life like movements are controlled by 22 people operating different motors, and hydraulics that are housed inside its steel frame. It was created by a company called La Machine to be featured in street performances in Nantes, France.
According to Wikipedia the largest recorded real elephant weighed 24000 pounds, and was 13 feet tall at the shoulders. He would have been dwarfed by this robot. This beast take "largest land mammal" to a different level.
