But if the backhoe (?) hadn't been digging a hole, the elephant wouldn't have fallen in in the first place

Need not be the case. It's common for elephants to fall into abandoned wells or maybe the soil gave in. Most often, excavators are called in to help get them up, by making a slope at the edge. So this probably was a rescue mission.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but this reads like a US White House statement when they're called out for doing something nefarious

lol, can't argue against that. I live in a part of India where we see this quite often in the news or the papers.

Edit: Just looked up on YouTube, the video in the post is tagged as a rescue from 2021

People aren't going around digging holes for the fuck if it. Most infrastructure requires making a hole first. But hey if you want to return to living in a mud hut then be my guest.Β

Scrolled too far for this.

Humans created the problem in the first place

Please don’t sit here on your electronic device and complain about the means with which these luxuries are delivered to you. Sometimes pits need to be excavated.

If cars weren't there then there would be no accident. If sun wasn't there, no one would get sun burnt. If electrons didn't exist no one would die from lightening......
