KOTA KINABALU: An injured baby pygmy elephant rescued from an estate in Lahad Datu in April is now a friendly and happy calf.

Fearful and almost blind due to an infection when it was first spotted, the two-year-old calf named Sahabat is now on its way to a full recovery, and is expected to be able to return to the wild very soon.

Department director Augustine Tuuga said they were doing all they could to ensure that Sahabat’s eyes were cured before releasing him back to his herd. “They then made a special holding crate to transport Sahabat for further treatment in Kota Kinabalu,” he said.
