I don't think this is possible. As far as I know, osmium is the densest element. A 355 cc chunk of osmium would only be about eight kilograms. I'm not sure what mass a baby elephant has, but I'm going to assume three of them would be well above eight kilos.

It contains 300kg of sugar, or for the Americans here, about 3 baby elephants of sugar.
