Kenya: Elephants pack their trunks

Kenya has begun moving 400 elephants from one national park to a larger one in what it calls the biggest transport of animals "since Noah's Ark", reports the BBC. The animals, which weigh two to four tons each, are being shot with tranquiliser darts, loaded onto special trucks and driven eight hours north. There was a serious overcrowding problem at the Shimba Hills Reserve, the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) said.
