The world's biggest paint sprayer is an elephant who has been using her trunk to suck up the colours and create artworks that are selling for hundreds of pounds each at a German zoo. Sita the elephant started painting on canvases at Osnabruck Zoo in northwest Germany because keepers wanted to train her to spray things on command during checkups by vets. But she was clearly enjoying herself and since March the paintings have also been put on sale to the public where they have so far in total raised EUR 2,000 (GBP 1,823 ). They said when Sita is in the mood to paint, her keeper loads up her trunk with watered-down food-safe finger paints that she then sprays at a nearby canvas.
