Well, I never thought I'd live to see the day that elephant poop was considered a "god", but those ridiculous little yellow slants have done just that. Take a look at THIS.
Remind me never to visit a jap zoo.
Utsunomiya Zoo makes elephant dung charms for students sitting exams
UTSUNOMIYA -- A zoo here has started making lucky charms for students out of elephant dung, and is giving them away to visitors.
Utsunomiya Zoo produced the exam success charms as presents for students preparing to sit university entrance exams.
This year is the first time the zoo has tried making the elephant dung charms, but the response has been good, with visitors describing them as "cute."
Ayako Nakamura, a 23-year-old zookeeper who came up with the idea of making the charms, remained humble, only saying there was "possibly" a chance that they would benefit people. The zoo, meanwhile, has already planned next year's version.
