Airavata is the legendary three-headed elephant steed of Indra, Hindu ruler of the gods.
Unfortunately, Indra traded him in for a Land Rover in the early 1970s, forcing Airavata to take whatever work he could find. Here we see Airavata (called "Gumpo" by his new owner) giving rides to tourists in Bali.
A bas relief of Indra riding Airavata can be seen here.
