Ailing Pakistan elephant receives diagnosis after international attention
  • last year
Hanging from a crane, 17-year-old Noor Jehan has just been seen by a team of international vets at Karachi Zoo. The 3.5-ton African elephant, who could barely walk across her enclosure due to a large growth between her back legs, caught the eye of Four Paws International after images of her were shared on social media. "It was a very risky procedure" says vet Amir Khalil, after knocking Noor Jehan to perform the diagnosis.
