If you want to really impress your partner, then it is a good idea to get them a lovely Valentine's Day card.

However, an Indian manufacturer has brought out something new that is sure to cause a storm – a card made from pulped elephant faeces.

Vijender Shekhawat is looking to take the market by storm with his novel creation.

"Elephants' gastrointestinal tract cannot digest fibres well. About 40 per cent of everything goes through untouched. As a result, their dung makes fantastic paper when it is pressed and processed," he added.

People do not need to worry about the card carrying a whiff, but Mr Shekhawat reassured individuals that they will have the same fragrance as any other card on the market.

It will be interesting to see whether or not the present takes off, but if you really want to push the boat out, why not add a soppy message?
