A baby elephant is saved from a well. Let’s read more about this act of kindness.

Elephants are the world’s largest land animals. Today, they are found in Asia and Africa. However, just because they are so large doesn’t mean that they don’t need help sometimes.

Recently, at a small village in Jharkhand, people saved a baby elephant. It had fallen into a deep well.

The calf had been among a group (herd) of elephants. The group had entered a village and were not leaving. Later on, the villagers found that this was because they couldn’t leave the baby elephant, who had fallen into the well.

Thankfully, there was some water in the well, which stopped the baby elephant from being injured.
Villagers informed officials about the situation. Officials removed one side of the well and created a type of road for the baby elephant to walk out. After eight hours, it was able to come out!
