Republican Mascot - The Elephant
The elephant was created by political cartoonist Thomas Nast in 1874. His choice of the elephant was a result of his needing a political symbol at the time as a mass animal escape from the New York Zoo was in the news. He merged rampaging elephants with the opinion that Republicans were practicing random destructiveness in their policies.
