Wow, that's me, very little...By the way, my name is Ming Jung! I must have been somehow lucky, because first they wanted to name me Benedetto, just like the Pope, Benedikt in Vaticanian, can you imagine...?Only because my birthday turned out to be on the same day as his one...

I don't know how it happened exactly that I was not named Benedetto, maybe my aunts had a say in it? Maybe they have known already that there are so many gay elephants, and maybe they just wanted to be on the safe side for later, to avoid that kind of jokes then, no not so much about me but about the Pope, when you know what I mean...
Anyway, I am still a small elephant and with whom I will bond later...to be honest, that doesn't interest me at all, no really...

I have better things to do, playing with Marlar for example, who first was not too thrilled when I was born but now it's fun with her...
And sure, not to forget little princess Maha Kumari, it's her with all that mud on the back...
MORGEN IST MEIN 2. GEBURTSTAG UND IHR KÖNNT MIR GRATULIEREN....
And only that you can't say that you didn't know:
TOMORROW IT'S MY SECOND BIRTHDAY AND YOU CAN WISH ME WELL...
Kommt doch nach Köln, da bin ich nämlich zu Hause, ich hoffe übrigens auch auf eine Torte...!!!-
Why not visit me in Cologne, where I am at home...Maybe I'll get a cake too???

Guten Morgen, Ming Jung!
Ich wünsche dir alles Gute zu deinem 2. Geburtstag. Hoffentlich bekommst du viel Besuch und viele Torten, naja, wenigstens eine sollte wohl drin sein!
