WATCH | Tourists cheer on baby elephant as it struggles to escape mud hole

Tourists at the Kruger National Park received a treat when they witnessed a herd of elephants frolicking in a mud hole while on a game drive.

Unfortunately, the smallest members in the herd found themselves in a bit of trouble when it was time to leave. One of the baby elephants struggled to find his footing on the edges of the hole, repeatedly falling back in.

The herd came to his rescue, helping the little elephant out of the hole as the tourists cheered him on.
