A group of four baby elephants were rescued from a well in Sri Lanka after they slipped down the muddy sides of the hole.
A video shows food being thrown down the well for the four baby elephants. They were discovered by a farmer in Horowpathana, Sri Lanka.
The calves were then sprayed with water to keep them hydrated before wildlife officials arrived at the scene.
A backhoe was used to create a path for the baby elephants to escape.
According to upi.com, the calves did not sustain any serious injuries from the fall.
