'''Jumbo the Elephant''' was a famous [[elephant]] of the nineteenth and early 20th centuries. Born in what is now the [[Sudan]], Jumbo was captured at an early age by British adventurers and brought via [[Cairo]] and [[Paris]] to [[London]], [[England]], where it was exhibited before massive and enthusiastic audiences. It was in London that Jumbo was given his name, due to his enormous size — Jumbo stood nearly 13 feet tall!
