Wandering Herd of Elephants Ushered Back to Their Chinese Nature Preserve

A herd of wild elephants left a nature preserve in China’s Yunnan province back in December 2020. Might have been a good vacation, but it was time for the elephants to go home! An emergency committee laid corn trees as elephant bait, raised electric fences, and even built new roads to guide the roaming pachyderms in the right direction. Provincial officials say the elephants traveled 807 miles — not bad for a family vacation!
