Most people know that there is nothing like a mother’s will when it comes to her children.
There have been stories on the news about women who have actually lifted cars with their bare hands in order to save their children, who were trapped underneath this type of motherly instinct.
It doesn’t stop with just humans either.
Animals have also been known to do some pretty amazing things to save their babies.
In 2015, an Asian elephant in the charted district of India proved that a mom will do anything to save her young.
On this day, this elephant and her calf- they were walking and the calf fell into a deep ditch, and the mother elephant knew her baby was in trouble.
So she tried desperately to free her baby from the thick mud.
The job was a lot harder than the mother elephant thought it would be to.
Each time she tried to free her baby, she ended up making things worse because she was so heavy she was actually pushing more and more dirt into the hole covering her baby.
Although it wasn’t easy, the mother elephant didn’t give up and she worked tirelessly for over 11 hours to free her baby.
When the local villagers saw what was happening, they were eager to help.
One villager, Jitendra Tiwari, got the entire thing on video.
They knew it would take their intervention to successfully save the baby.
Since the mother was not going to leave her baby.
For the villagers to try and help, they had to do something to lure her away, and they realized that since the mom had been trying to save her baby for 11 hours, she probably hadn’t had anything to eat or drink that entire time, and they realized that was their best chance to lure the mom away.
The villagers sent for a cart of bananas and a trough of water.
When the mother saw what they had, she was to realized that she did need in water if she was going to be able to continue trying to save her baby’s life.
When the mother went over to eat from the cart, the villagers rushed in to remove the heap of sand that the mother had pushed over the baby while she was trying to rescue her.
As the mother ate, the rescuers kept trying to pull the baby elephant out while many of the villagers looked on and finally they removed enough of the dirt where they could pull the baby elephant up by her trunk.
Although she was just a baby, she still weighed a lot.
I mean this is an elephant we’re talking about.
It made it difficult for the rescuers to pull around, but they did get the baby elephant back onto solid ground.
Eventually, when the mother elephant realized that her baby was safe, she quickly forgot all about that food and water and ran over to her baby, and it was at that point the villagers backed up so that they would not be in the way of the mother baby reunion.
When they were together- the mother and her baby- they spent a lot of time on the ground together and they remained close as if the mother elephant didn’t want to let her baby go in fear that she’d end up in some type of danger again.
While the heroism, love and bravery of this mother was amazing, you got to give the same props to those villagers as well.
They had no emotional ties to this family of elephants, but they still decided to try and step in and help and were successful at it: pulling a baby elephant up from a well, that can’t be an easy feat.
In fact, it took them hours for the rescuers to finally bring the baby to safety.
Each second that they were working to save that elephant, they were in danger themselves.
I mean had the mother filled up on bananas and water and seen what they were doing.
She may have misunderstood that they were actually trying to help.
If that happened, she could have charged them causing some serious injuries.
The rescuers didn’t care about their own safety, though.
They didn’t care about their well-being or even their time.
All they cared about was saving the baby elephant and reuniting her with her worried mother.
The whole thing was caught on camera and it is absolutely amazing.
