Filmed in the Grand Park Zoo in Seoul, South Korea, the astonishing video shows the baby beast falling into a pool in the wildlife enclosure while standing beside one of the adult elephants. As the infant desperately splashes around in the deep water, the second adult rushes over from the other side of the pond to help the troubled animal. But when the two gentle giants realise they cannot fish the tot out of the deep end using their trunks, they appear to hatch a plan. In a heart-warming moment, the quick-thinking pair run to the shallow end of the pool and jump into the water.
