Get ready to watch one of the sweetest, most precious moments captured on video. A herd of elephants were trekking along when a little baby elephant gets stuck in a muddy waterhole. Some people who were on a Wild Wings Safari, came upon the scene, while sightseeing.
This tiny little elephant is trying to pull himself out of the mud hole, but his little legs aren’t long enough and he doesn’t have the strength to get out on his own. The mother elephant is trying to figure out how to help him by using her trunk. She can’t seem to get a grip, so she gets into the hole for better leverage. Still no luck!! It’s just too slippery.
Then the baby cleverly walks over to a slightly drier edge of the waterhole, tries doing it himself again, but he still needs mama’s help. She then gets another adult to lend his trunk to oust the youngster. Finally SUCCESS!! Such great problem solving for mom and babe alike! Watch what happens after he gets out, still wobbly on those adorable little legs.
Enjoy this amazing footage! Let us know what you think!
