Pygmy elephant rescue
Wildlife veterinarians and trained volunteers feed a pygmy elephant calf on Jan. 20 in Borneo, Malaysia.
The male calf, which is only a few weeks old, was pulled out of a deep moat surrounding a palm oil plantation in the remote Sabah state.
Pygmy elephants are an endangered species with only about 2,000 individuals left in the wild due to migration disruption attributed to deforestation in Borneo.
