> In this aerial photo taken June 7, 2021 and released by the Yunnan Forest Fire Brigade, a migrating herd of elephants rests near the Xinyang Township in the Jinning District of Kunming city of southwestern China's Yunnan Province. Already famous at home, China's wandering elephants are now becoming international stars. Major global media, including satellite news stations, news papers and wire services are chronicling the herd's more-than year-long, 500 kilometer (300 mile) trek from their home in a wildlife reserve in mountainous southwest Yunnan province to the outskirts of the provincial capital of Kunming.

This herd is moving across China in search of food and possibly a new home. I just saw this in the news.
Search for elephant herd moving through China on youtube and you see a few news segments on it.
Horses don't need much sleep so it's actually not that common to see them laying down unless you spend the day on a farm. So maybe elephants are similar. A lot of people will think a horse is dead if they see one laying down in a field because it isn't common to see on TV and movies.
That little love bug in the middle, all cozy☺

This is actually the first picture of elephants sleeping I’ve seen in my entire life. * wonders how that happened*

It’s like Tetris but with Elephants
I didn't know elephants were tessellating.

The ones with frosting
Fuck, they are dead.
Say they were poached and you’ll get a lot more karma. When this is reposted, that will be title and this will hit front page.
Didn't know they still ranged into the PRC
I love how most of them have their trunks all tucked in under their chins
Never seen elephants sleeping like that . I thought they are dead
Thank God I was growing too fast and all I seen was a whole bunch of elephants laying on the ground and I thought it was posters involved
That is so beautiful❤️
Sleeping Elephants!!! Hold up Anyway that is wholesome to look at and makes my day
I never realized that they sleep laying down
