Hiking
This colorful elephant stands on the meadow near the TRIVET veterinary practice on Blaieweg. Previously, it advertised at Zoo Basel for the financing of the new elephant enclosure. Veterinarian Patrick Rehmann later bought the figure at auction and brought it to Frick. Since 2020, the unusual pachyderm has been greeting walkers and passers-by.
