Watch: Baby Elephant Falls In A Ditch, People Reunite It With Family After 5-Hour-Long Rescue
A video of a baby elephant being rescued has gone viral. While the baby elephant was being rescued its family stood nearby waiting for its return. The location of the video is not known.
Whenever man and animal come in conflict, the situation is tense. However, there is no dearth of instances where humans have come forward to help animals in distress, and sometimes even put their own lives in danger to save the life of a mute being.
One such incident was recently shared on Twitter by IFS Parveen Kaswan.
Today a very small elephant calf fell into a natural ditch inside the forest. Staff got alerted by sound. Herd tried best & then stood little far, which they usually do so that human helps. After 5 hours of work & struggle by calf he was finally rescued. Now back with family. pic.twitter.com/F8Y2LS1g4f

The video of rescued baby elephant is viral. Given the strong bonds elephants have, and their ¡®will not abandon¡¯ nature, it is not surprising to know that while the baby elephant was being rescued, its family stood nearby, waiting for its return.
While rescue work was going on the family just stood and was observing how things are going on. The calf after coming out went straight to family & met like he is doing after years. All happy faces.

Kudos to all the people from the forest department who came together and did an exemplary job of reuniting a baby with its family.
