The efforts of authorities in Yunnan to safely guide the elephants back home began to show signs of success in early June. After arriving in the area near Kunming in early June, the elephants finally turned around and began to move southward. “Asian elephants need to live in warm areas and the further north they travel, the less friendly the climate will be for them，” said Chen Mingyong, a professor of ecology and the environment at Yunnan University. “We need to guide them toward their proper habitat before the temperature begins to go down.”
The elephants' return journey has not been much different to their journey north, adding more details to the elephant family's drama. On June 6th, a bull elephant under 10 years old suddenly broke away from the herd (兽群) and made off on its own. Shen Qingzhong, head of an institute, guessed the act may have occurred because the young elephant is in the rebellious (叛逆的) puberty time.
Right now, the 14 remaining elephants are lingering in the mountainous area surrounding Shijie Township in the city of Yuxi. They have been there for over eight days, with the young elephant remaining around 20 km away with no sign of returning soon.
