DRAMATIC moment hero vets save mother elephant's life with CPR and rescues baby from drain in Thailand.

The animal and her baby slipped into the 7ft deep hole during a storm which made the grass muddy and wet in Nakhon Nayok province, Thailand on July 13.

Vets were struggling to free the pair because of the torrential monsoon rainy season conditions. The distressed mother was also standing over her child to try and protect him.

Wildlife volunteers tranquilised the 10-year-old mother but she hit her head on the edge of the concrete structure - knocking her unconscious.

Worried vets immediately revived the jumbo when she was pulled out of the hole with a cherry picker crane. Dramatic footage shows three vets using their weight to put pressure on the animal's chest to wake her up.

The one-year-old calf was rescued shortly after. It took the team more than three hours to finish the operation.
