The place

Elephant Rock / Roccia dell'Elefante, Castelsardo, Sardinia, Italy

Sardinia's Elephant Rock is a natural rock formation shaped like an elephant, and it is especially useful for AnimalDex because it also carries archaeological atmosphere.

The rock contains ancient tombs known as domus de janas, often translated as fairy houses.
