If you ask me, wild animals should be, for the most part, living in the wild.
However, as we've seen time and time again, wild animals are really good at getting themselves stuck in all kinds of places. Most of them aren't as lucky as this baby fox, whose cries were heard by some kind humans who rushed to her rescue.
The baby elephant in this next video definitely had an angel watching over her, because the following amazing rescue does not happen all that often. After a baby elephant lost her way from her mom and the rest of the herd, she got herself into an even bigger mess when she became stuck in a deep well.
Thankfully, the heroes of Kenya's Amboseli Trust For Elephants knew exactly what to do. They knew rescuing the gigantic baby would be difficult, but as you can see in the video, no one expected just how hard it would be. As the baby flopped around in the slippery water pit, her mother was frightened by the rescuers, since she isn’t used to seeing humans.
What is it about baby elephants getting trapped in wells?! One way of looking at it is that mud is basically like quicksand to an elephant (who ways about 1,000 pounds). Luckily, in this case, the hard-working rescuers were able to secure rope tightly around the baby and pull her out safely.
