Origami Elephant Steps Through the Grass

A bold elephant stands on four strong legs, made from crisp, zigzag shapes that look just like folded paper. Broad triangles form its thick ears, while pointy lines shape its sturdy trunk and gentle tail. The elephant seems to pause mid-step, as if he hears a friendly sound nearby and wants to listen closely.

Every section of his body waits for bright color. His trunk points forward, curving with a friendly diagonal, and his short tusks peek out beside his jaw like little spears. See how the corners and edges fit together, like puzzle pieces—each one ready for its own color story.

Fun Fact!

Scientists believe the elephant's trunk originally evolved from a much shorter snout, possibly to help an early ancestor breathe while in water.
