Engine Failure
After looking at the excavator some more, the officials realized the engine overheated. There was even smoke coming from the excavator! They were using it for hours on end, which is why it has since given up. Luckily, some of the locals knew how to fix this problem! It was a good thing they were there.
Taking A Break
The volunteers now had the tools they needed, so they went on with the repair work. The other volunteers and rescuers took a break since they were getting tired. Other locals gave them drinks and snacks. For now, the baby elephant had no choice but to wait. However, the adult elephants started screaming again! They tried to calm them down by getting closer to the calf to ensure it was all okay.
