Men risk their lives, rescue elephant calf stuck between boulders. Watch

One of the rescuers also suffered minor injuries.

When an elephant calf got stuck between two huge rock boulders, the locals along with the forest department officials rushed to its rescue. However, the situation turned out to be much more difficult - and dangerous - than they anticipated. The mother of the calf, who was roaming nearby, refused to let anyone go near her kid. She even chased away the rescuers from the spot.
