My new friend, the English Elephant

My friends David and Susan brought me this elephant back from London; he's from Muji, the Japanese product store and his name is "Nigel".

Now I don't know much, but I know elephants don't come from England or from Japan. So I suspect Nigel is an Indian Elephant who's family emigrated to the United Kingdom because of India's status as a former British Colony and member of the Commonwealth. While I have yet to see an actual elephant, I'm told that Nigel is on the small side compared to other Indian Elephants— Which is fine with me because I live in a small apartment.
