Incredible video captures two elephants teaming up to save calf from drowning

An incredible video shot at the Grand Park Zoo in Seoul, South Korea, shows two quick-thinking elephants team up to save a young calf from drowning.

In the heart-stopping surveillance footage, a baby elephant can be seen playing near the edge of a pool in its enclosure while an older elephant closely watches over.

Suddenly, the baby loses its balance and tumbles into the pool, which is clearly too deep for it to stand in.

As the young elephant desperately thrashes around in the murky water, two adult elephants in the enclosure become visibly distressed and spring into action to save the calf.

After quickly realizing that staying on land wasn't going to help, the two elephants charge into the pool, trunks first, to successfully guide the baby out of the dangerous situation.
