Surprising bystanders on Maple Street, a row of elephants from the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus lumber over downtown pavement heading toward 11th Street on July 19, 2005. Ten elephants are being escorted through the wholesale district; a police car heads the impromptu parade, and handlers can be seen walking alongside the herd of pachyderm.
