I always thought it was just made to look like a foot, but upon closer inspection I realised it still had the hairs on its legs.... man I was sooo shocked....that must have been a baby leg, cos it was still little.....gross man who buys stuff like that, " mmmm this would go perfect with the drapes honey.."

I guess that's better than leaving them to do something useless like holding up an elephant... Heck, that would give me a great place to store those California Condor eggs and Snowy Egret feathers... “…turned into useful jars.”… I guess that’s better than leaving them to do something useless like holding up an elephant…

I use mine to store powdered rhino horns to maintain my virility. Seriously, it's sad to see evidence of such atrocities, no matter how long ago they happened, especially since I'm sure the elephants were much more intelligent than the people who stole their feet.
