He said, "The calf had strayed away from its herd.

We immediately reached the spot and found it covered in mud.

The mother made several attempts to rescue the calf but failed because the calf had a leg injury.” He further added the calf had been sent to the Centre for Wildlife Rehabilitation and Conservation in Kaziranga for recovery.
