Majestic elephants have a long struggle to survive in the face of human elephant conflict.
Due to increase in population, humans have encroached into forested areas, depriving the elephant their habitat lands and reducing their food availability, causing them a long-term starvation.

Foreign, oh, foreign, foreign, foreign, foreign, um.
Meanwhile, she gave support from her leg to avoid the baby slipping back into the water.
Finally, mother’s love won.
She was able to pull her baby out.
