Ernakulam: Certain incidents bring to light the underlying humanity that links humans and animals. Marking one such event, separated from its family, a six year old baby elephant found itself trapped in a well in Kerala's Ernakulam district recently. Determined locals and forest rangers instantly acting to save the elephant, launched a major operation, making efforts with an earthmover to bring the baby out. Meeting the humans half way, the resilient elephant helped clear the earth in front of the 15 feet deep pit and managed to climb her way out of the pit and go into the jungle amongst cheers of joy among the spectators.
