This procession of sorts was nothing unusual… at least not until the day the unexpected happened. It had been a lovely day as the herd made their way to the nearby forest. To cross the river, they needed to walk through the holding. While it is routine for the adult elephants, the babies had a hard time crossing the river. There was a baby in the group, and it was the youngest member of the herd. It was only a sixth of the size of its adult companions! As the herd crossed, the calf fell into a hollow area between the river and the land. It was only a couple of feet away, but the calf was now covered in mud and unable to escape the area! The others had no idea how to retrieve this baby.
