A baby elephant was rescued in southwest China, after its family abandoned it. Wildlife officials found the 6-day-old pachyderm, who had been left behind by its herd in Yunnan province. The little one was not in perfect health. Rescuers performed tests on it to determine it had an infection around the umbilical cord. The helpful humans gave the calf anti-inflammatory medication before moving it to a rescue center.
