Need help identifing Carved elephant, monkey and bird

By Jeff14Ford, 1 January, 2014
Description

I found a stone carving of an elephant with what appears to be a monkey holding a palm branch in one hand and a basket in the other. There is a bird with a long beek standing next to the elephant. At first i thought it was Four brothers, but there is no hare. The stone is marble like with 85% being a redish color with black viens.
