Biggy elephant was not big by age. He was quite a young elephant. But all of you must be knowing that even young elephants are quite big in size. So elephant named Biggy was also big in size at his very young age.
He was residing in the zoo of the city where Dholu Ram Gadbad Singh used to live. Dholu Ram is the famous rolypoly boy who is also very strong and intelligent. He is very helpful too.
Dholu Ram used to visit the zoo often and had become friendly with a chimpanzee, a zebra, a dolphin, a duck, a panda, a rabbit, an ostrich, a raccoon, a kangaroo, a giraffe, a deer, a flamingo and also Biggy elephant.
Dholu Ram took a special liking for Biggy elephant. Biggy used to give Dholu rides on his back. Dholu used to enjoy these rides. Dholu always used to take bananas with him to feed Biggy. Biggy loved eating bananas. He could eat a dozen bananas within a minute.
One day when Dholu visited the zoo, he met all of his animal and bird friends but he did not see Biggy elephant. He enquired with the in-charge of the zoo about whereabouts of Biggy. He told that Biggy was missing from the zoo; he was not traceable anywhere. It was suspected that some elephant thief had taken Biggy away with him.
Dholu missed Biggy elephant a lot and also felt worried about him. The in-charge of the zoo assured Dholu that he had reported the incident to the police and they were already searching the thief and Biggy elephant.
A couple of days passed.
Then one day Dholu was going on a picnic along with his friends from the school. They were traveling in the school bus and were enjoying themselves by singing the songs and eating tasty things. And suddenly, Dholu noticed an elephant lying right in the middle of the road. The drivers of the cars, trucks and other vehicles were driving past the elephant but no one stopped to see the lying elephant. The driver of the bus in which Dholu and his friends were traveling also circumvented the elephant and kept driving.
Dholu did not like this attitude of all these drivers. He went up to the driver and requested him to stop the bus. He said to the driver, " Please stop the bus. I suspect that the elephant is hurt badly and he is therefore lying across the road. Please stop the bus. We must help the elephant." All of Dholu's friends also requested in chorus. Reluctantly the driver had to stop.
Dholu Ram and his friends got down from the bus and went near the elephant. Dholu saw that the elephant was badly hurt and was bleeding. The elephant seemed to be unconscious. Dholu started going around the elephant and as he approached the head of the elephant, he recognized him immediately. The elephant was none other than Biggy who was missing from the zoo for the past few days.
Dholu shouted, "Biggy, wake up. How are you? Are you hurt?" But Biggy did not reply at all. He was lying absolutely still and made no movement whatsoever.
Then some villager came to Dholu and said, "I saw the accident. A big truck came from behind and dashed against the elephant with a big force. As a result, the elephant got hurt, started bleeding and fell down unconscious. The mahout of the elephant ran away leaving the elephant on the road, unattended. Even the truck driver drove away his truck without bothering to see the condition of the elephant."
Dholu Ram felt very concerned. He was already missing Biggy for the past few days and now he found Biggy but he found him in such a bad state. Then it occurred to him that his mom had given him her cell phone so that they could be in touch with each other- his dad had one more cell phone. He took out the cell phone from his pocket and called his dad.
He said, "Dad, do you remember that Biggy elephant was stolen from the zoo. I have found him on the road unconscious. He needs immediate medical attention. Can you please call the veterinary doctor along with the local police chief and zoo in charge immediately and ask them to reach here in the fastest possible way?" Then Dholu gave his dad the location of the place of the accident.
Within fifteen minutes police chief, zoo in-charge and the doctor came. Doctor had brought with him many medicines and injections. He administered the required medicines and injections on Biggy elephant so as to minimize his pain and to make him feel stronger.
The police chief had brought a crane and a big open vehicle with some police men for help. Zoo in-charge had also brought with him the zoo attendants for any help that Biggy elephant would need All of them tied Biggy with a big and strong belt and the crane operator lifted Biggy and placed him on to the big open vehicle. Then they drove Biggy to the city's hospital for animals.
Dholu also went along with the zoo in-charge, police chief and doctor to the hospital. He requested his friends to go ahead for the picnic. He told them that he would join them soon in his dad's car as soon as Biggy became conscious.
The doctor performed a minor operation on Biggy and bandaged him properly. He also gave Biggy some more medicines. After about an hour or so, Biggy opened his eyes. He was not feeling any pain because of the pain killer injections the doctor had given him. As he opened his eyes the first person he saw was Dholu Ram. Biggy smiled at Dholu.
Dholu smiled back and rested his hand on Biggy and consoled him. He said, "Biggy, you met with an accident. Now, doctor has given you the required medicines and you will be fine again. Just take rest for a couple of days." He gave Biggy some bananas. Biggy ate them all and said, "Thanks for the bananas. I was missing you and bananas for past so many days; from the time the thief stole me away from the zoo."
Dholu assured him that now he was safe in the company of his friends and need not have to worry about the thief any more.
Biggy elephant spoke with him for a while and then went to sleep. He needed lots of rest to recover soon. He insisted to Dholu, "Now I am fine. I must thank you. But you must not wait here. I am going to take rest by sleeping a lot for next two days. You must go to picnic now. When you return we will talk a lot with each other. Bye for now."
Dholu requested his dad to drop him at the picnic spot. He joined his friends and told them the good news of Biggy's recovery. All his friends also felt very happy to hear the good news and said, "Now we can really enjoy the picnic."
