An elephant, which fell into a 20-feet well at Gosi village in Ramgarh district, was rescued on Monday, a forest officer said.

The pachyderm fell into the well on Sunday night when a herd of elephants raided Gosi village, about 40 km away from Ramgarh district headquarters, the officer said, adding, the elephant also joined its herd once it was rescued.

The rescue operation which started in the morning, ended around noon and an earth-mover machine was used in the exercise, Divisional Forest Officer (DFO) Vijay Shankar Dubey said.
