Kill elephant, take elephant out of elephant skin, reconstruct elephant out of clay and put skin onto it, remove clay elephant again, and eventually you have a skin that looks like an elephant. If you'd just, y'know, not killed the elephant in the first place... (Yes, I know that the taxidermy will keep beyond the natural expiry date of the elephant. Still, the concept has a silly quality.)
