It seems that this elephant cow and calf were disturbed by tourist vehicles, causing the mother to keep moving which prevented the calf from drinking and resting.

Food export bans or serious disruptions have included those from India (wheat), Ukraine (wheat, oats and sugar,) and Indonesia (palm oil). Rice could be next in line. In the Newsroom checked in with Ian Collard, Chief Executive Officer of the NMI Group to see what they're doing to keep food on the table. ]]></description>
