Elephant polo
Elephant polo is a variant of polo played whilst riding elephants, mainly in Nepal, Sri Lanka and Thailand where working elephants are still common. Two people ride each elephant; the elephant is steered by a mahout, while the player tells the mahout which way to go and hits the ball.
