A baby elephant’s misadventure turned into an elaborate rescue mission in an Indian village after it fell into a well nearly 30 feet deep. The calf was among a herd of elephants to enter Nimatand village from the nearby forest, in the eastern state of Jharkhand. Villagers discovered the calf at the bottom of the well Monday morning and alerted the forest department. Officials demolished an entire side of the well wall, eventually cutting a ramp into the earth. Eight hours later, the calf stumbled out of the well, covered in mud and dust.
