epa10572914 An elephant keeper tries to feed African elephant 'Noor Jahan' who is resting on a mound of sand at a zoo in Karachi, Pakistan, 14 April 2023. Veterinarians tried hard on 14 April to save the seriously ill 17-year-old female elephant who had fallen in a pond at the zoo in Karachi. 'Noor Jehan' is one of Pakistan's last four captive African elephants and has been ill for months. A team of veterinarians from the Vienna-based animal welfare organization 'Four Paws' had visited Karachi the previous week to treat the ailing mammal. The foreign vets made her stand up again before they returned home. But on 13 April 'Noor Jehan' fell into a pond and was pulled out using a crane, Amir Khalil, head of the team that treated her said. EPA/SHAHZAIB AKBER
