91 Elephant Tattoo Designs for Men

Think big with your next tattoo, and get a full-blown elephant. This kind of manly adornment will let you stand tall above your rivals, and it carries deep Eastern significance.

If you want to establish a gargantuan presence with just a little ink, then it may be the day for you to receive an elephant tattoo. There are a variety of welcomed connotations attached to this distinguished mammal.

In Hindu society, elephants are worshiped as a top class of reincarnation. They are also connected with Ganesh, who is an Eastern god known for a promiscuous lifestyle. Yoga is directly linked into this likeness and awareness as well.

On the completely opposite end of the spectrum, some American conservative fellows also use their elephant tattoos to indicate an affiliation with the Republican Party. As the most noticeable logo for the GOP, this trend is witnessing a never-ending uptick. This occurrence is only more prominent during election years like 2016.

For once, it’s a good thing to be the elephant in the room. Just make sure it’s your tattoo that we’re talking about here. To see some ostentatiously austere elephant ink jobs, just peruse this convenient collection of enormous tusked designs.

Elephant Tattoo FAQs

What does an elephant tattoo symbolize? 

Elephants are often used to represent wisdom in tattoo design. Their vaunted memory and long lifespan feed into this ideal, and their natural look means realistic tattoos are often used to illustrate this. 

The size of the elephant, and it’s relationship as a herd – you’ve often seen elephants ‘holding hands’ and protecting the calves when under threat – also represent strength, family and loyalty. 

What can elephant tattoos mean spiritually? 

Another popular aspect for elephant tattoo designs are concepts of divinity and reincarnation, given the relationship to Lord Ganesh and positive depictions of the creature in a wide variety of Eastern religions.  

Why are elephants used in political tattoos? 

American conservative tattoo enthusiasts also use their elephant tattoos to indicate an affiliation with the Republican Party. As the most noticeable logo for the GOP, this trend is witnessing a never-ending uptick.
