data-end-time='40042'>The elephants are traveling from their home, in a mountainous area of Yunnan province, toward the city of Kunming.</span> <span data-start-time='40042' data-end-time='56604'>YouTube and Twitter are full of video clips showing interesting behavior of the animals as they continue their path across farmland, villages and around cities. </span> <span

data-end-time='181292'>Some experts say the elephants might have left because their leader might have gotten lost.</span> <span data-start-time='181292' data-end-time='199396'>Asian elephants are loyal to their home areas unless there have major changes to the environment, a loss of resources or development, said Nilanga Jayasinghe, of the World Wildlife Fund.</span> </p></div><div
