Chiang Mai, Aug 12 (EFE) .-. The coronavirus pandemic has slowed down tourism in countries such as Thailand and India, which has in turn left elephant trainers with no income to support their elephants and has increased the probability of these animals falling into illegal industries, as various experts pointed out to Efe.

A baby elephant struck by a motorcycle on Sunday while crossing a road with a group of wild pachyderms in the province of Chanthaburi, Thailand. But according to HuffPost, a quick-thinking and highly experienced rescue worker saved the little one using CPR. Both the rider and elephant are recovering. Neither had serious injuries. In his 26 years as a rescue worker, Mana Srivate has performed dozens of resuscitation attempts--but never before on an elephant. Srivate said he made an educated guess about the location of the elephant's heart, based on his knowledge of human anatomy and a video he saw online. It’s my instinct to save lives, but I was worried the whole time because I can hear the mother and other elephants calling for the baby. When the baby elephant starting to move, I almost cried.
