Baby Elephant Rescued from a Well

That obviously made a lot of people's day!

All's well that ends well!

What humiliating day for the poor elephant! First he falls into a well and gets all yucky. Then he endures a group of humans gathered around, pointing and gawking at him for the next five hours. Eventually there is a way out, but just when he thinks he's home free, he finds out that the humans had place a huge backhoe that he hast to find some way to crawl out from under (without getting crushed). Then, when he finally gets out of that mess, all of the humans start screaming and chase him off into the woods.

I it wouldn't surprise me if he avoids people for the rest of his life.

That was tense for a minute. I was waiting for the backhoe to fall on the little critter.

Amazing. I just read a children's book with an almost identical story, except it was a hippo in a well instead of an elephant. Book was called "It Will Take a Lot of Us to Lift a Hippopotamus." No kidding.
