A herd of 15 elephants is reportedly making its way towards a major city in China as residents and officials track the situation.
The elephants walked 300 miles from a nature reserve. Officials said they are not sure why the group left the reserve close to the city of Pu’er last year. The Pu’er area is reportedly known for cultivating tea. The group was originally composed of 16 animals, but the Chinese government said two went back home and a baby was born during the trek, according to The Associated Press.
