It's not every day you see and elephant getting his nails done.
That's one pampered pachyderm!
An Asian elephant named Boyu got a jumbo-sized pedicure yesterday, courtesy of his Ukrainian zoo handlers.
Equipped with mechanical nail files and mini-sanders, Boyu's zookeepers methodically buffed and trimmed while the 39-year-old elephant snoozed under an anaesthetic.
A group of German vets flew to the Ukrainian zoo to lend a hand with the delicate procedure, which involved sedating the colossal creature, carefully rolling him over, and then hoisting his titanic tootsies onto a special platform.
