KUNMING, June 21 (Xinhua) -- China's herd of 14 wandering wild Asian elephants has traveled further north, re-entering Shijie Township in Yimen County, in southwest China's Yunnan Province, authorities said on Monday.
The herd headed 9.3 km north between 6 p.m. on Sunday and the same time on Monday. In recent days, they had moved back and forth within Yimen and Eshan counties, posing great challenges for on-site command and coordination of their migration.
