This is the heartwarming moment that dozens of Indian rescuers rallied together to use a crane in order to save an elephant trapped at the bottom of a 20-foot well.
The massive rescue effort took place last week close to the Panagar army camp in Jalpaiguri, Western Bengal, after the elephant strayed out of the Bishnupur jungle and into the well.
Army officials realized the elephant was trapped inside the well after hearing a noise coming from deep inside.

Video footage of the delicate rescue operation shows how the team used a crane to hoist the huge animal out of the well and onto the back of a truck so it could be taken to an examining room for evaluation of any injuries.
The elephant was kept under close supervision for a few days before it was successfully released back into the wild.

Giant dump in the ocean has started getting cleaned up. Expect 50% reduction in 5 years. Great stuff.

The Ocean Cleanup Project is amazing. If it keeps working and becomes financially viable, it’ll both clean up the ocean and make money. Really impressive.

This is a great thread idea.

That's friggin' fantastic.

I feel like … eh, maybe there have been medals or … other shiny things given out postmortem for K9 dogs. Or had memorials made for them? Never heard/saw it when I worked for the Dept., but I have the strong sense that (at some point) I have seen and/or heard about stuff being done for canine excellence.
