A “suffocating” situation just happened in a village on the edge of the forest: a gluttonous elephant suddenly choked on a white core nearly **1 meter** long right in its throat, causing the whole herd of elephants to panic and the villagers to riot. According to witnesses, this poor elephant is very gluttonous, seeing anything that can be chewed, it swallows it without hesitation. But this time, the “wrong meal” almost took its life.

Immediately after discovering the elephant collapsed, gasping for breath and making painful cries, the villagers immediately informed the animal rescue team. Dozens of people had to coordinate – both keeping the elephant calm and trying to pull the “foreign object” out of its giant throat. The scene made everyone who witnessed it hold their breath. After several minutes of struggling, the 1m long white core was finally pulled out, accompanied by cheers of joy echoing throughout the forest.

The little elephant was then given water, gently massaged and its health monitored. Fortunately, it narrowly escaped the jaws of death. The scene of the elephant happily wagging its ears and weakly waving its trunk as if to “thank” those who saved it moved everyone who saw it to tears.
