This heartwarming video shows a smart dog taking the lead and guiding its owners to a weak bear cub fighting for survival during a walk in a forest in Irkutsk, Russia.
Luckily, Elsa's owners work as specialists at the Irkutsk Zoo and as soon as they discovered the distressed cub, they knew exactly what steps to take.
Lyudmila Ivushkina, the person who filmed this video and that serves as the Director of the zoo gallery, said that the baby bear, believed to be female, had likely been left orphaned after hunters killed its mother.
Veterinarians expressed concern over the frail condition of the bear cub, stating that without immediate medical intervention, it would have likely survived for just one more day. At its age, the cub should have weighed approximately 15 kilograms, but it was merely 3.5 kilograms.
