The rising mercury hasn't spared voiceless animals either. A heart-wrenching picture of a baby camel, stuck in a water tank is going viral. At a short distance stands his mother, looking at the dead body. The camel reportedly died in search of water. The incident occurred in Rajasthan's Jaisalmer.

A Sunday morning in Sanwata village of Jaisalmer was a rather sad one. The villagers saw a baby camel stuck in a water tank while its mother helplessly stood at a distance.

The camel is said to have bent its head into the open tank, in an attempt to quench its thirst. The camel reportedly slipped while getting his head out of the water tank. As a result, he might not have been able to maintain balance and fell right in the middle of the tank and got stuck.
