As a rescue worker in Thailand, Mana Srivate has performed CPR(心肺复苏) on too many people. But this will be the first time he can say that he performed it on an elephant. The rescue worker was called in while he was off duty. A baby elephant had been struck by a motorbike while it was crossing a road in the Chanthaburi Province, Thailand.

While his colleagues helped treat the injured motorcycle rider, Mana was seen giving CPR to the baby elephant that was lying helplessly on its side. Thankfully, both the elephant and the rider recovered from the incident as they both didn’t have any serious injuries. “It’s my duty to save lives, but I was worried the whole time because I can hear the mother and other elephants calling for the baby,” shared Mana. “I guessed where an elephant’s heart would be located based on human theory and a video online. When the baby elephant started to move, I almost cried.”

About 10 minutes later, the baby elephant managed to stand up and it was taken to another location for treatment. It was later returned to the scene of the accident, where the mother returned once they heard the baby calling out. The baby elephant went back to its mother. Although he had given CPR to many accident victims, Mana shared that the elephant was the only one that he’s managed to save.
