The streets of Old Volantis are overrun with white dwarf elephants.

Single dwarf elephants pull ornate carts called hathays, which are similar to a Westerosi oxcart but far more decorative. The hide of the dwarf elephant which pulls Quentyn Martell's hathay is the colour of dirty snow. Tyrion espies a dwarf elephant whose hide is as white a bone.

While held captive by Ser Jorah Mormont in the common room of the Merchant’s House for half a heartbeat Tyrion thinks he glimpses Illyrio but it turns out to be a white dwarf elephant passing the front door. [1]
