Dumbo

3 May 2010 - Residents of an Italian village were surprised to find an elephant relaxing in their back garden after she escaped from a travelling circus. The 3,5 tonnes elephant, named Dumbo, took a walk from her cage shortly after the circus arrived in the village of Bassano. The 40-years old elephant walked a few hundred meters into a house garden, where a dog alerted the owners, who called the fire brigade. Dumbo's trainer also arrived to escort her back to the circus. It did not became clear if the dog was rewarded.
