A group of good Samaritans rescued a four-week-old elephant from a mud pool by dragging it out by its ears. Tertius Lambrechts was leading a tour through Caprivi, Namibia, on September 19 when he spotted the baby animal lay on its side. Heartwarming footage captured the moment two of the group climbed into the knee-deep mud to grab the exhausted elephant by its tail and ears. Eventually the men managed to free the tiny jumbo from its trap and after a few minutes it regained enough strength to stand up of its own accord.
