Saving a Baby Elephant
i Mei is a wildlife lover. She often volunteers at a wildlife reserve in Africa during
her summer vacations. One day, while she was on a routine patrol with the
reserve staff, they heard a loud cry.
Following the sound, they found a baby elephant stuck in a mud pit. Its legs were
trapped, and it looked very weak. Li Mei and the staff knew they had to act quickly. They
first tried to use long branches to make a ramp for the baby elephant to climb out, but it
didn't work. Then, they brought buckets of water to soften the mud around the baby
elephant's legs.
