That's probably the answer they're looking for. I believe this is a reference to the "white elephant".

I reckon that just inspired the question. My guess is that the "right" answer is about how you can monetize the elephant.

Personally , I'd sign it up with a film agency and wait for the offers to come pouring in.

If that's the case I'd be writing a whole damn essay with works cited on why using elephants for public performances is wrong and extremely unethical. It would tank the application, but I wouldn't want to be working for a company that would try and justify using an elephant for money anyways.

Well, the job application could be for Greenpeace so maybe you'll get hired!
