Here is a different type of baby elephant video. My friends at Painted Dog Conservation in Zimbabwe spend a lot of their time following packs of African Wild Dogs through Hwange nation park . Occasionally, they find injured animals needing their assistance along the way. They often help animals with snare (wire trap) wounds that need to be treated. One afternoon Jealous (this is actually his name, native Zimbabwean parents name children after English words they have heard or seen, but don’t understand what they mean. His name does not describe his nature.), PDC’s head tracker, found a baby elephant trapped upside down in a water trough and called Peter Blinston, PDC’s project manager, to assist in a rescue. Watch the heroic rescue below.
