rooster59 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Baby jumbo rescued from a well in rubber plantation With help of a backhoe, forest rangers and villagers, a baby elephant was rescued from a well in a rubber plantation in Kaeng Hang Maeo district of Chanthaburi province before dawn today (Feb 16). The one-year old baby elephant was among a herd of about 40 wild elephants which arrived at the rubber plantation at about 2 am apparently in search of food. However, it accidentally fell into the 3-metre deep well and could not get out. Villagers who were awaken by the arrival of the elephant herd said the mother elephant tried to help her baby, but she got entangled with electric wire and was struck by a strong electric shock that she collapsed next to the well.
