Police nab runaway elephants at bus stop

Two runaway circus elephants in Germany surprised passersby and police by showing up at a bus stop

during a brief bid for freedom, officials in Hanover said on Tuesday.

Dunia, a 40-year-old Indian elephant, and her counterpart Daela, a 25-year-old African elephant,

were apprehended by police near the western city of Hanover over the weekend nonchalantly munching

on tree leaves and looking for all the world as if they were waiting for the bus.
