Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Sweet dreams! Wandering elephants take a snooze

These Asian 15 elephants left their home in Yunnan, southwest of China, and have been traveling over 500 kilometers north through towns and villages. They might have been searching for a new habitat for some reason but no one knows for sure yet. The problem is they’ve been eating crops and plants along the way and damaging buildings and knocking down trees. In fact, some vultures lost their habitats in the trees and had to migrate to other places. Since these wild elephants are protected by law in China, they are still free to travel. For now, they are heading north under warm temperatures. But if they migrated in far too north, they might find it too cold to live in winter.

Enjoy seeing this rare video that shows the way the elephants are taking a sound, uninterrupted nap together.
