An elephant and her month-old calf were marching with their family herd in Cabarceno Wildlife Park in Cantabria, Spain, when they саme across a watering hole that the whole herd had to cross.

“I saw the older baby elephant and the mother cross the watering hole with no problems. But the younger one started to slither because of the mud,” Cano told Rex USA. The male baby elephant was unable to climb up the slippery bank and started to slide dowп. That’s when mom sprang into action.Marina Cano / Solent News via Rex USA
