In a heartwarming incident, a somersaulting elephant was saved from a canal by a group of villagers in India. The incident took place in the state of Kerala, where a wild elephant accidentally fell into a canal and was struggling to get out.
The elephant was swimming for quite some time before it managed to grab hold of a protruding branch on the side of the canal. Unfortunately, the branch snapped, and the elephant was thrown back into the water. It was at this moment that the quick-thinking villagers sprang into action and started to gather around the canal to help the struggling animal.
With the help of ropes and sheer determination, the villagers managed to pull the elephant out of the water and onto dry land.
