It's a very traditional love story - just on a bigger scale than usual.

A tame female elephant has fled an Indian circus after eloping with a wild bull elephant that broke open a gate and led her off into the jungle, her distraught handler said today.

When handlers called for Savitri to come to them, she looped her trunk around the bull's leg and "he protectively shielded her like in a Bollywood blockbuster," the official said.
:!)

How do you know there are two elephants in your refrigerator?
 
Open the fridge and look inside, silly.
 
Footprints in the butter.

I wouldn't know. My refrigerator has a sticker on it that says:
"If this fridge is a-rockin'
Don't come a knockin'"

From the rockin' I can only guess whether it's two elephants or two very enthusiastic mice.
 
"Just in" (Yahoo news):

An Indian court freed Bollywood star Salman Khan on bail on Friday almost a week after he was arrested and jailed for shooting endangered gazelles during hunting trips nearly a decade ago.
