For any television police detective who had to face an angry captain who screamed something like, “You couldn’t find an elephant in a bowl of rice,” this could be the case of a lifetime.
Austrian officials posted mug shots of a missing elephant in newspapers on Jan. 18, calling on the nation to help track down the 24-year-old, 5-ton pachyderm.
