By October 20, 2012Kenya safaris

It was suck a heartwarming scene captured in the video in Kenya  and  watched by so many people as they tried to rescue a baby elephant from a 5 feet pit hole. The struggle starts with a fearless mother elephant using all it has got to get her 8 months baby out of the ditch but in vain.

Vicki Fish lock, from Amboseli Trust for Elephants had to face down the mother with her Land Rover and they had already pulled out the baby elephant together with here entire team after just about 30 minutes. It was in good condition and the moment it was out, it ran straight to its mother.

There are lots of elephants in different parts of Africa that are fighting for their lives in the jungle by way of living and from the poachers who are hunting them down for their tusks for ivory that are on demand across the world . The increased population is another issue leading to increased demand for land for human settlements thus increasing the human-animal conflicts. Wildlife protection should be number one priority in almost all African countries as many tourists enjoy watching these animals which are not common in some their countries.
