The arrival of a newborn animal is always a beautiful and heartwarming sight, even more so when it belongs to an endangered species.
This was the case in a recent video that surfaced on the internet, featuring a herd of elephants gathering around a pregnant elephant as she gave birth to her calf.
Elephants are known for their tight-knit communities and highly empathetic nature, and the video shows the members of the herd, mostly female, coming together to support the mother during her delivery.

Elephants are remarkable creatures that have been observed forming strong bonds with each other and even mourning each other’s deaths. They can live up to 60-70 years, relying on the strength of their relationships with each other to survive.

However, despite their resilience, elephants remain vulnerable to extinction. Their populations are declining at an alarming rate due to poaching, habitat loss, and human-wildlife conflict.
