I hope his mum was nearby and he was reunited with her.

The article about it showed the baby was reunited with the herd shortly after its tantrum. Thankfully us humans are a noisy bunch. We make our presence known for miles around. And they're bright enough to know that if they hear a bunch of us being noisy in the direction they just left a baby, they should check it out.

I don't understand how it even got stuck in the first place that way.

Kids do stupid things, no matter the species.
