Even the world's largest land animals can get rattled when the earth itself starts to shake - but an earthquake is no excuse for not looking out for the youngest and most vulnerable members of your herd! When the San Diego area was struck by a 5.2 magnitude earthquake, their African elephant herd at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park immediately formed a protective circle around their calves. It's a fascinating video clip which has captured the public's attention in the day since the quake happened, serving as a reminder of how intelligent and compassionate the animals can be.
