Same here.  So, I got to rooting around in the runtime to piddle around with 
the textures and find some in guess who's folder(s)?   Just don't say "Roy 
Batty" and we be cool ok?  ;o)  ANYWAY, I was amiss to lead thinking to the 
Elephant being Noggins.  The Howdah and War Howdah Texture set are his.   As 
way cool as the various elephants are, I am not sure who exactly created the 
original DAZ African Elephant.  Which seems a masterpiece of simplicity, 
actually!   I find that it was Chris Creek of Silverkey3D that created most 
of the DAZ animals.   I also recall most of us agreeing that the DAZ animals 
were WAY better than the Poser animals.   And the DAZ African Elephant is a 
Silverkey critter!    :o)   Tadaaaaaa!
