a Norwegian couple recently gave birth to a half-human/half-elephant
child that many Hindu practitioners believe to be the reincarnation of
the popular deity Ganesha.
He is commonly depicted as a man with several limbs and the head of an
elephant, something that if it were to actually exist, the very sight
of it would haunt us to the grave.
Alexandar and Lola Andersen first attempted to keep their child a
secret from the world but soon pictures of the child along with the
identity of the family leaked to the media. The Andersen's found
themselves celebrities in the country of India.
"We wish they would stop hanging outside of our home. Why won't they
just leave us alone? We've already been through enough. My baby looks
like an elephant and even worse, he's a ginger. If they hand me one
more basket, I'm going to stab them in their face," said Lola
Andersen, the baby's mother.
When asked of the child's name, father Alexandar only answered, "we
never really gave it a name. To be quite honest, we were just going to
call it the creature that we keep in the basement. We were essentially
just going to keep the little gingerphant in the basement and feed him
drifters that we picked up off of the road.
This does open up some new options. We might sell him to India. They'd
probably let him live in the Taj Mahal."
