Six elephants fell to their deaths in Thailand while trying to save each other from a treacherous waterfall at Khao Yai National Park.
Two other elephants were also found struggling on a nearby cliff and escaped disaster when they were moved by Thai authorities. They are currently being monitored as the traumatic incident may have taken an emotional toll. Researchers found that elephants experience many of the same emotions as people do, including grief.
Officials said that the incident took place after a baby elephant fell over the waterfall. The notorious waterfall reportedly has a history of similar accidents.
