Koohii stories:

1) [ayoung24] 14-10-2006(288): An elephant has huge ears, like a rabbit, and a big, fat body, like a sow.

2) [Transtic] 7-3-2008(28): An animal with huge ears like a rabbit, and a body fat like a pig… ¡An ELEPHANT! For the "phenomenon" connotation you could use Dumbo, or Joseph Merrick (the "elephant man") ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Merrick ).

3) [Thunderball] 17-10-2007(16): With huge rabbit ears, and a body fat like a pig, the elephant has an image problem for sure (しょう)! NOTE: This kanji also means 'image'.

5) [kanjihito] 13-3-2011(4): An elephant has the head and ears of a hare and the body of a pig, at least in proportion.
