I have never made zoo animals yet have made fairies and penguins. I treat fondant like playdough that is make for adults. What you could always do is make a batch of playdough and play around with that until you get what you want. Then it would be easier to colour the fondant and make the animals as you please.

Giraffe: http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/cr_clay_figures/article/0,,HGTV_3237_1396366,00.html

For the Elephant, I would make the mouse on here as shown, but just elongate the nose into a trunk and I think it would look like an elephant with the big ears. http://www.hasbro.com/playdoh/default.cfm?page=freshideas&lvl=Beginner&object=Mouse

Here is the CC posting I got the links from. It lists a couple of other sights too. http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-ftopict-33633-.html

Hope this helps. icon_smile.gif
