This aerial photo taken on July 19, 2023 shows wild Asian elephants foraging at a paddy rice field in Jiangcheng County, southwest China's Yunnan Province. Thanks to uncompromising environmental and wildlife protection efforts, the population of wild Asian elephants in Yunnan has been growing in recent years. Feeling much safer than before, some of these elephants have become increasingly "rampant," and a daring "group tour" of an elephant family in the province even made a great scene in global cyberspace back in 2021. Jiangcheng County, which boasts a noticeable number of wild elephants, has inaugurated a special squad to monitor their movements. Once an elephant is found near a village, members of the squad would rush in, and deter it in a non-violent manner. But if they fail to do so, cordon signs would be placed on site and warning messages would be sent to the villagers. While staying indoors to avoid confrontation with these naughty giants, villagers do not have to worry about their crops in the field. An insurance plan is in place to cover possible damages, and generous compensations would be made in accordance to the amount of crops consumed or affected by the unaware invaders. The Asian elephant, the continent's largest land animal, is under top-level protection in China. The species is mainly scattered in Yunnan's Xishuangbanna, Pu'er, and Lincang. (Xinhua/Chen Xinbo)
