This particular texture was formed by basaltic lava or rock, which is a type of material that results from the rapid cooling of thick lava which engulfed the island many years ago. Coupled with the perfect texture of the rock, is an eye and a giant floppy ear, this rock looks like a huge elephant which seems to be hiding in plain sight. it’s almost as if this is an elephant that's hiding in plain sight.
