A giant suit of elephant armour has made it into the Guinness Book of Records, as the largest suit of animal armour in the world.
The armour is on display at the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds and is the only suit of its kind in the world. It's made of thousands of pieces of metal, all linked together.
The armour would have been used to protect an elephant in battle. It was made in India in the late 1500s, over 400 years ago.
