This was the incredible moment when a herd of elephants rushed to help a baby elephant that seemed to collapse in the middle of the road.
The moment was captured right in the middle of the road in Kruger National Park that brought traffic to a halt.
The calf tried to get up after collapsing but had no luck, and it ended up lying flat on the sidewalk.
Instead of ab.an.doning the calf on the road, several adult elephants ran up to help the calf with their trunks and feet.
In the end, thanks to their persistent and loving efforts, the baby elephant finally got up and walked into the forest.
The whole incident was recorded by the Kruger Sightings Channel on Youtube and has garnered nearly 15 million views.
It is still unclear why this young man collapsed, but many suggest that it may be due to fatigue or just tripping.
Elephants live in a tight-knit, loving matriarchal family, often with more than ten members and often led by the oldest female in the herd.
