This baby elephant calf is an unfortunate victim to one of those pathetic traps set by a wrongdoer. Luckily wildlife officers found this elephant calf at a very early stage through its wounds. Wildlife officers quickly took this calf into the elephant treatment center to heal this elephant from Hakka patas injuries.
The elephant calf was very calm throughout the medical procedures. The wildlife officers and vets took a good care of this young giant by patching him very well. This animal could have faced a slow painful death if wildlife officers failed to spot it being wounded,
