A baby elephant struggling to get out of a mud bath in Kruger National Park in this cute footage.
Filmed on August 26, the elephants can be seen playing in the mud, but when it’s time to get out the baby takes a little bit longer than the rest.
“After pulling himself together the young elephant gave it a second go to get up the slippery bank of the mud wallow. Immediately two of his older sisters came closer to assist,” said the filmer.
“While slipping and sliding up the muddy bank, the older sisters tried to use their trunks to help their struggling little brother."
