They aren’t fascinated. They are paying respect. This is just heartbreaking. That poor little calf. I could cry
I hope it dies like in the last documentary where it got eaten by hyenas
This is where organizations like Reteti Elephant Sanctuary and Sheldrick Wildlife Trust elephant orphanages come in. They literally rescue baby animals and orphans from situations like this. They need these type of organizations throughout Africa imo.
He needs his Mamas milk 🥺🥺🥺 this breaks my heart poor baby🐘
I just want to hug that poor baby

What's the name of that emoji you typed?
Seeing these elephant baby's struggling to servive hurts my 💓 it's so sad to watch.

Saw this video several years ago, but watching again now also gave the same emotion. Hope and pray that this baby elephant grown up and hriving.
He sadly died I watched the original documentary
@@krislv9219 Nature has her own rules, which nothing can bend, escape or deviate from that. This is same for every life form.
@@krislv9219 oh no. So sad
@@prashantj7839 So edgy bro
@@krislv9219 no he didn't. you did not watch the original
oh man, that kick to the baby was brutal... emotionally. I hope someone intervened to help this calf.
Sadly the calf died I watched the original documentary
Elephant nomads of namib desert it’s called

Doubt it. They gotta let nature be nature.
No one can intervene.too dangerous
Oh man, this is incredably heart wrenching. It's so dry. How could they live. RIP brave Elephants.
I want adop this baby
Why baby elephants gotta be so cute :( this is heart breaking
Where’s the hyenas when you need them
Yes ❤😭
It everyone finds them appealing.
They aren't cute. I hate them.
My heart goes out to that orphan!! Why is life so hard for these innocents!!!
No one is more innocent than humans and yet we can't seem to catch
@M. A. E AF. Humans innocent? What are you on 😂 humans are by far the least innocent
@@user-qq3pq9zi6v You as a human may be the least innocent... just a thought.
@@user-qq3pq9zi6v well you’re human as well?
That baby elephant is no more innocent than my young son. Sick of idiots acting like humans are all bad
Can't see a animal struggling for life... specially a elephant...i love elephant they are so innocent...
Omg, poor little baby..:(. That was so sad...I love elephants, especially babies!
Madison Square do worry..he dies others will live..... lots of young pups will get to eat....its the way it is...1 dies others live..... it works that way...
Life is unforgiving.....
This video make me cry,
Heartbreaking. I hope he somehow found a way to survive.
Elephants are majestic, beyond belief.
This breaks my heart

Did the baby elephant make it. So sad for this poor little baby.

Leticia Caceci uhm why does abortion have to be as heartbreaking as this?
Poor baby just want more milk...
Fuk him
@@DavidGarcia-wr6ge Get Lost
@@AhmedAlkabasi fucking Elephant was gonna die one day anyway, we all will, all animals will die, why does it matter lol
Am crying 4 himba
Aah.. poor soul!
Breaks my heart into pieces 😥😥😥😥
Poor little Baby 😢. I hope his grandma has helped him and today he is happy elephant 🙏
They are so respectful to there kind...they are more emotional than us..hope they can all survive..it's so dry. In there
I feel like crying while I’m watching this video.,
Well, that broke my heart.
Brings me to tears so sad to lose one of these wonderful animals so sad
Should have notified the baby elephant rescue group down there in Nigeria bet they'd come and get it.
If anyone is wondering why they dont help the animals, its because the cameras are far away or are auto recording so nobody is actually there, and also if they intervene it interrupts the practices of nature.
I feel sad for him.
The fact that they have a close family relationships makes them human-like (at least for the females and young males.)
and children
Poor Baby , this will make you cry 😢 😢
Poor little guy 😞
OMG This poor baby!😢🐘
Fuck that thing lol
That was the saddest video on the whole internet
Howlader Rahman You must have never seen PETAS videos then
bou hou hou
Go watch the paralyzed lion cub documentary this is nothing compared to that
Howlader Rahman I agree
whaa whaaa whaaa
Awe...poor baby elephant so sad at least he has grandma to look after him
Poor baby elephan god pls help 🙏give some water and fruit 🙏i love elephan
Yes it breaks your heart. You just want to be there for them
Poor baby.. 😢 want to give him a hug..
Baby elephants are the cutest baby on earth
I thought humans r the only mammals in deep pain n sorrow but after seeing this video my heart broke for the tiny orphan.
Literally in tears😢 Poor baby💔
The baby elephant is too adorable to die. Too bad he suffered before he died. He died sad lonely & rejected-he lost the will & DRIVE to live.
He did not die. Please stop spreading misinformation
Oh poor baby
Don’t get left behind…
Man, I don't want to watch anymore of these sad videos for my heart is aching. Just seen one where the calf lost his herd, he was shun by other elephants and the hyenas attacked him. 😢😭😭😭😭
@Cumar Farah you're eViL
yea,I'm the same, it's breaks my heart
Yes I too watched that video.. and I'm so much upset with the life of orphaned elephants.. I love them so much and can't watch them suffering
That one was soooooo awful
@Cumar Farah you need psychiatric help if you enjoyed that video it was particularly sad. Have you been tested for psychopathy.? I have a feeling if you enjoy the suffering of others you are seriously needing help.
I feel quit sad
awww poor baby
poor baby that's so sad
So Sad 😞 ♥️🙏Hope he / she survived.....
”LES ANGES DES ANIMAUX ” ils sont fabuleux à tout point de vue.........tellement supérieurs à nous humains qui les maltraitons ! !!QUELLE BONTE , QUELLE EMPATHIE , CHEZ CES ANIMAUX ....?
The struggle for survival is real.
I teared up a little.
and the "Elephant Grandmother of the year" award goes to.......not THIS grandma.
3:21 was just....mean !!
(Yes, I know it's 'nature' blah-blah-blah)
@Equestrian Bae they're, uh, animals.. if you don't like reality, then don't partake in it (eg, change the channel).
So sad and mad watching the grandmother's kick! What kind of grandma would that be... It makes me ponder whether it is more cruel leaving these elephants to die freely in the nature, or live under the chains by human without freedom?
@@GMamba its nature
@@GMamba Living under chains of humans is way worse than the kicks the grandmother gives.
She should not have taken calf from mum.
No, hablo inglés pero sentí una tristeza 😭profunda y cuándo lo pateó y el bebé quiso arrimarsele se frenó sintió peligro miedo!!! amo los elefantes ❤️. Vivir y sobrevivir en esté mundo de locos y HASTA de maltrato en el mundo animal por parte de la madre???? La tapa
My heart breaks 😢Seeing the poor baby kicked and then taking steps back from being afraid. He still walks next to her since he has no other to turn to for help💔😪
It really breaks heart ! So sad! Why can anyone call to help!
Im crying for real when the big elephant kick that baby out from having some more food for his own. He is just a baby oh god
Rosa didn’t kick him hard enough. He’s a waste of precious resources.
Plzzzz🙏🙏..more than filming ,..pls save calf...help the poor lil baby😭😭
I like how the people in the comment section think they could have saved them
Poor baby 😭
To all the people who say that the ppl are A holes to not interfere lemme tell ya’ll this They’re not allowed to interfere with nature unfortunately, it’s illegal to do so
Poaching is also illegal. We can balance that shit out yo! lol
@@sicnarf6971 well the video isn't about poaching now is it, but yeah we can stop poaching
Then don't go to a doctor when u are sick bcoz it's also natural. Then why human help another human in a natural disaster, as it is also natural.
@@anuragmishra7350 that's a different scenario involving us as a species that I cannot answer
@@Latenivenatrix_Mcmasterae no it's not a different scene, we human being think what is good for us not for other species, that rule u were talking about is made by us not by nature.
OH MY! This really breaks my heart! Poor child elephant!
Got me in tears 😰Poor baby 😔Rest mama😞
RIP Himba's mum🐘🌹🐘🐘
This is so sad. My heart breaks for this baby elephant. 😢💔🙏❤
This isn't sad. That elephant carcass went on to provide food and life to COUNTLESS creatures. One elephant's sacrifice, sustained all kinds of healthy animals.
Very sad I pray the baby survived
Poor baby
This has that Land Before Time type of feel LOL
@sindismal, DrAtoda, and all the people that want to know... I've seen the full episode on Belgian television today, and unfortunately little Himba was so weakened due to nothing being fed properly, that he was barely able to stand at the end. The group waited for him to get better and stronger, but it got worse every day ... In the end they HAD to move to find new resources, but little Himba was never seen again...
I love Elephants so much.. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💔💔💔💔💔🙏🙏🙏
Nature's harsh but fair
kinda reminds me of my grandmother
3:19 God damn, poor soul.
This is so sad
Awww poor thing!
Feel my heart 💔
elephants can sometimes be cruel
why do you hate elephants so much? also elephants aren't to blame, people need to stay out of their territory. its simple really.
your comment made me laugh harder than I have laughed in awhile. thank you.
*agirlyou dontknow*__Well .. *you* try to suckle two babies while you're starving ?
those videos are really fantastic, I love baby elephant, it was so cute.
That''s so sad! I can't believe they don't do anything for those elephants, even if it's just kill them instantly to end their suffering.
yea I agree
Yeah the Whole “don’t interfere with natural at all” is kinda stupid. Sometimes it depends
why don't you call DSWT! They can help the baby..
Jah these guys are assholes
@Omkar Gajare Especially when rich humans do not care.
To not interfere with nature
@PersonaX I do not think anyone is disputing that. Have a great day.
@@tshilidzimadzhege4949 it's a documentary
I watced that untill the last on TV . i cried so much.....!
This is so sad 😭
Heartbreaking to hear that the baby died
This is rather sad, and I'm sure if the camera crew were allowed to help, they would have. But the thing about documenting nature is, no matter what happens, humans are not allowed to intervene. That's one of the hard parts about the job. Other organizations are not able to help either because the baby has not totally been orphaned, it still has a herd to live with. Whether this was filmed or not, nature took its course, and things like this do happen.
So sad.😔
Beautiful Elephant 🐘🐘🐘🐘 guys 😍👏
All elephants must be protected, observed and care for.
Absolutely! How else can we get ivory.
I am disturbed that no one even tried to call any of the wild life trusts to help save this baby. I realize death is a part of life but there are not allot of elephants left.
There are many breeds of elephants so we have ALOT if them but certain species of elephants are dying off in large amounts
Gifted Gamer 5 breeds I think it was and 2 are slipping away
Theresa Ramey
It's so that "nature can take its course." Quite frankly the same shoudl be for us humans.
Gabriel Mondragon so if your mom gets really sick you would just leave her to die and let nature take its course p.s im on your side about the elephant part not the human part
Especially when elephant numbers are dwindling and there are quite a number of organisations in Africa that have nurseries to care for orphaned calved. But you know the BBC, they would never let that get in the way of a good story.
Awesome!
I am so sad for the poor baby 😔😢
MY heart just broke when that adult female elephant just kicked the baby elephant. Cruel.
This is one of the saddest things I've seen in a while. Poor baby.
The BBC won’t call any elephants rescue centers because it wouldn’t appeal to their money making agenda. Who wants to see a baby elephant rescue when this touches people’s heart ?
Man kills elephants by the thousands threatening extinction but BBC crew not allowed to help a dying baby because nature must take its course? Humans are compassionate creatures and also part of nature, if there were any around, not these crocodiles from BBC, they would have helped.
Instead of filming there has to be a wildlife organization that can help save this beautiful baby elephant!! There are organizations to save elephants all kinds of wildlife on youtube. Save this beautiful baby elephant Now!!!
É impossível não amar os elefantes... Eles são mais humanos que nós os humanos
🥰
They are amazingly intelligent! They know when one of their herd has died! They mourn their dead 😢
how can u show these heartbreaking story's and not intervene! ? please don't show me these cruel story's that u can stop. heartless
Kimberley Medina I see a lot of people in the comments arguing about what the ethics are in these sorts of situations, where a doc is being filmed, and wildlife is dying on camera. I understand why people may think that the correct thing that should've been done is to help the poor baby elephant, but think about it this way: you are jammed into the top of a rover with filming gear and supplies. You are at the start of a very long project. You see that a baby elephant is starving. What do you do? You are not a vet, you do not have room in your vehicle, the nearest vet where you can feed it anything may be days away. The calf would likely die on route, if you were not arrested or halted for poaching. (Thats another thing, you can't just bring an elephant outside into anywhere unless you have authority, or papers saying that you can. But in that case you would not be filing a natural doc, you would be filming a 'save the animals' project. ) Another thing you would have done is tranqualize nearby elephants that try and protect the baby. Now, let's say you have tranqualized one or two adult elephants, carried the baby elephant and crammed it into your vehicle, all to try and find a person who has the food that the calf is able to eat. By the way, it cannot even eat grass. Trying to do all of this would waste time, fuel, and it would ultimately ruin your project.
A documentary filming crew is limited in what they can do in their filming sites. A natural doc is made to show what happens in nature, it is not a disney movie. Everybody with a normal mindset would want to help the calf. But anyone with a realistic mindset would know that in this particular situation, you just have to let it be. That doesn't mean they are horrible people. From this we should reflect on human effects on wildlife. Not only look at the immidiate problem, but what is causing a lot of the death of animals. That is more effective than just going into nature and rescuing whatever's in trouble, don't you think?
I think that the most that this documentary can adress is: "This is what happens out here. Please try and help"
So sweet but sad because the cub is also grieving his own mother and than without herevlove
This could have been avoided!!!!!!!! I AM SOBBING!!! This is TOO SAD for words!!! This is like a knife through my heart!!!!!!
