WATCH: Baby elephant rescued by herd after getting stuck in a watering hole

We know you don’t need another reason to love elephants but this video is exactly what you need to watch on a rainy Thursday.

Filmed by Wild Wing Safaris in South Africa, it shows a baby elephant who has gotten itself stuck in a muddy watering hole.

It can’t quite get purchase on the slippery bank, and its mother comes to help. She tries to pull him up with her trunk as the herd begins to leave but she’s struggling.
