Kenya’s elephants send text messages to rangers (AP)

Kimani, a huge bull elephant, can be seen with his collar containing a sim card, Friday, Sept. 26, 2008 in the Ol Pejeta conservancy near Mt. Kenya. Save the Elephants has set up a project where they placed a mobile phone SIM card in an elephants collar, then set up a virtual 'geofence' using a global positioning system that mirrored the conservatory's boundaries. (AP Photo/Karel Prinsloo)AP - The text message from the elephant flashed across Richard Lesowapir’s screen: Kimani was heading for neighboring farms.
