Last year, a group of elephants made a decision
(
决定
)
: go north! After
months of travelling, they made it 500 kilometers away from their home in
Xishuangbanna, Yunnan. And it seems that they are not going to stop their trip
anytime soon.
“
Asian elephants often stay in one place. We seldom see them
travel such a long way,
”
said Chen Mingyong, a teacher at Yunnan University.
Scientists are still not sure why they are doing this. Some believe it蒺s because
they are looking for better food. According to Zhao Huaidong from the Interna鄄
tional Fund for Animal Welfare, the number of Asian elephants is going up be鄄
cause of human protection efforts
(
努力
)
. So their old homes may not have
enough food for them. At the same time, the crops
(
庄稼
)
, vegetables and fruit that
people grow also make elephants more interested. Another reason
(

,
according to Chen, is that they have lost their way.

Animals need our help! 1 we蒺re talking about wild animals, the homeless
pets at our local animal shelters, or the animals in our own homes or yards,
animals really need our help.
There are many different things we can do to help 2 , from volunteering
our time to changing the way we live. But one of the greatest things we can do
each day is to learn 3 about them and what they need. 4 us, animals cannot
