The Mission Had to be a Success

Several hours later, the excavator was finally back up and running; the crowd was overjoyed. Since they had managed to widen the opening in the ground, the next step was to carve a trench out from one end to help the calf safely evacuate the narrow ditch.

As much as people wanted the baby out, they also had no idea what kind of reaction to expect from the herd. For now, everyone was focused on completing the rescue mission successfully.
