An adolescent wild elephant that accidentally fell into an over 50-foot-deep well in southern India's Tamil Nadu was rescued following a 16-hour-long struggle on November 19.

The rescue operation was carried out at Panchapali village of Dharmapuri district.

Visuals from the rescue operation show a team of wildlife veterinarians led by Dr Prakash being lowered into the deep well to administer darts for tranquilising the animal.
