Occurred on June 1, 2026 / Frederiksberg Gardens, Copenhagen, Demark

"I was on holiday in Copenhagen and decided to take a morning jog through Frederiksberg Have park. I was delighted to find I could see into the elephant enclosure in Copenhagen Zoo from one corner of the park. As I looked on, a baby elephant and its mother appeared and went down to the pool to drink. The baby lost its footing and fell in. What then unfurled was a scene that transcends species – a baby in distress; a mother's panic and a family rushing to help. A privilege to witness." Credit: michael elwin
