Race To Save Baby Elephant

A BABY elephant in Vietnam is being nurtured back to health with human milk formula after it became separated from its mother and the rest of its herd. British wildlife expert Dr Jake Veasey tried to reintroduce three-month-old Gold to his elephant family by pushing the baby towards them – and at first it seemed like his attempt had been a success. But the team’s joy turned to devastation when Gold was found alone less than twelve hours later, some distance from the area where he had appeared to join the other elephants. Now Gold is living in temporary accommodation while Animals Asia build a sanctuary to care for him and other elephants.
