UPEI becomes home to herd of snow elephants

The University of Prince Edward Island recently became home to a herd of snow elephants after fresh snowfall. Atlantic Veterinary College’s artist-in-residence Christopher Griffin, who is known for creating wildlife-inspired artwork, was reportedly inspired by the snowy day. He worked for more than five hours to carve the elephants, which stand on top of the UPEI sign. “I drive by that sign every day, and I always think, ‘That spot is just begging for something to go on it,’” said Griffin. “So, when the snow fell, I knew exactly what I wanted to do.”
