There is nothing more spectacular and intriguing than life at sea. The ocean has always been a mystery, and every day on a long journey at sea feels like an old world adventure.
The ocean seemed to have a force of its own, almost like a majestic creature that had come to life through centuries of stories.
While many of us can only dream of an extended voyage on the waters of the ocean, some people manage to live a life of high adventure at sea.
There are several things that are very unpredictable when you are out in the open sea. For example, the weather can change in an instant and you never know exactly what you might see in the incredibly deep waters below the ship.
Whether it's a pod of friendly dolphins popping up to say hello or a pod of jellyfish basking in a warm pool, life at sea is truly unpredictable. This was true for the Sri Lankan naval team. The team is out in the ocean most days, patrolling certain areas or carrying out specific missions. The naval team in Sri Lanka certainly thought they had seen it all. However, one day they saw something they never expected to see.
At first glance, crew members thought they had seen some sort of unidentified mass at sea during a routine patrol. They saw a big gray mass floating around and thought it might be garbage or some other routine thing they were going to take a quick look at.
However, as the naval team's boat approached the mass, they realized it was something they had never seen before. They immediately saw that they were about to have an incredibly unique mission.
They were about ten miles offshore and the boat was sailing in deep freezing water. They quickly realized that what they thought was a mass was actually a large elephant. The elephant entered the waters after trying to cross a pond and was carried away by a strong current.
The elephant was very tired and was struggling in the deep waters for his life. The naval team knew immediately that the elephant was in danger and needed their help to rescue it and return it safely to dry ground.
Many people are unaware that elephants have very buoyant bodies and trunks that work like a snorkel, making them very good swimmers for their massive size and weight.
The Sri Lankan naval team, along with other teams that joined the group, formed a rescue plan. The elephant was soon mobilized and taken back to dry land for a safe return to its natural environment.
