Video: This Touching Elephant Reunion Will Make Your Heart Melt

The elephant had unknowingly wandered into a pit and could not find its way back

When a baby elephant became stuck in a muddy hole, it looked like all hope was lost. The elephant had unknowingly wandered into the pit and was unable to find its way back to the herd.
