How to avoid tax creep in retirement

China's nomadic elephants forage for food

Reuters Videos
Updated

Drone footage showed the giant mammals walking through and foraging for food against the backdrop of a nearby village.

The herd consisted of 15 elephants initially, but one of them has left, according to China's state media.

The elephants had been defying attempts to redirect them after a journey of several hundred kilometres north. While it is unclear why the elephants are moving north, Chinese media said a decline in edible plants in forest habitats has put pressure on the animals, whose numbers have grown in Yunnan in recent decades.
