八头野象的悠闲之旅
八头野象的悠闲之旅


Eight wild elephants took a walk on a country road in Yunnan, China. There were some baby elephants in the herd. The adult elephants stayed close to them to keep them safe. The elephants ate grass and banana leaves by the road. They were in no hurry. They walked slowly and enjoyed their trip.
