This is the heart-warming moment a loyal herd pulled together to save a baby elephant who tumbled into a watering hole. 

The terrified youngster slipped into the pit and found itself knee deep in mud and sludge as it frantically tried to climb out. 

In these superb pictures and video footage, its mum can be seen making fruitless attempts to pull the youngster to safety before a larger female steps in, bends to her knees and miraculously manages to push the baby out of danger with her trunk. 

Photographer, Richard Tustin, who spent hours at the hole waiting for something memorable to happen, said he could hear the mum screaming in despair and saw the look of terror in her eyes as she tried to haul her calf to safety.
