Children at a school in Thailand received Christmas presents from elephants dressed as Santa Claus recently. The elephants dressed up in festive gear to hand out gifts to the students at the Jirasartwitthaya School in Ayutthaya, north of Bangkok.
This year, four festive elephants and their mahouts visited the school said Lardthongtare Meepan, owner of the Ayuttahaya Elephant Palace, an elephant camp.
The elephants also put up a dance show and performed tricks for the excited audience of schoolchildren.
According to Euro News, the event is a yearly highlight for the students at Jirasartwitthaya School in Thailand - a predominantly Buddhist country. Last year too, five elephants visited the school to hand out stuffed toys and gifts.
