The Design
The ramp had to be made sturdy enough that it could hold the baby’s weight, which is why it was taking a lot longer than people had hoped. Minute by minute, though, the baby was able to get closer to the top. People refused to leave; they wanted to see this happen. With each drop of dirt, the baby would test the groun beneath it again. Obviously, it didn’t want to tumble back into the hole again!
Inch by Inch
To the Top
Finally, the little baby elephant placed his front legs on solid ground. He was finally at the top! The ramp had worked perfectly, and he found the strength to crawl out. As he emerged, everyone who had been a part of the rescue mission began to cheer loudly. Of course, the elephants were a part of this celebration as well. They all began to get excited, moving about and trumpeting as the baby was freed. It was quite the moment.
