Here's what's going on, it's happening in the country of Thailand where a herd of about 20 elephants are being fed coffee beans and then when it's pooped out, they farmers collect it.

This may sound a little gross or off the wall but according to NBC News the coffee is much smoother and not as bitter as regular java. Yum!

Next time you have a cup of coffee you might want to inquire as to it's origin, oh yea and by the way the coffee beans will cost you about $500.00 a pound.
