Elephant shit paper
The Elephant Poo Poo Paper company makes stationery and related goods out of dried, odorless elephant shit:
Link (via Cribcandy)We can make about 25 large sheets of paper from a single piece (or turd) of elephant poo poo!!! That translates into about 10 standard sized journals including the front and back covers! Neat, huh!?!?!?
Update: Henrik sez, "Swedish entrepreneur (and some other folks, too) Lars Cronquist makes paper out of moose shit. And old denim jeans... and different vegetables and stuff...."
Update 2: Ilja sez, "These people make paper from sheep droppings."
Update 3: Lorraine points us to this panda shit paper, too.
