KARACHI: An elephant in the Karachi Zoo is finding it difficult to survive. Her condition is in shambles. With no focus on the distressed creature, matters have become worse. Despite a surgery of Noor Jehan last year, her problem has worsened with no hope in sight. Zoo officials, on the other hand, claim the elephant is being is treated from pain. The officials added the zoo was looking for interaction with the foreign animal rights group and sooner, the Four Paws – a global rights group – would visit the zoo. Meanwhile, Marina Ivanova, project manager of Four Pawas, said while treatment is being offered to the elephant, this is not enough for her as she needs a natural environment where her suffering and trauma could automatically alleviate.
