epa11643080 A handout photo made available by Maejo Rescue Association shows elephants submerged and waiting for rescue at a flooded area of Elephant Nature Park in Chiang Mai province, northern Thailand, 04 October 2024 (issued 05 October 2024). Severe flooding caused by heavy rains triggered the rapid rising water level of the Mae Taeng River, in the wake of the Typhoon Yagi, ravaging Thailand's tourist destination province of Chiang Mai. At least two elephants died as a result in the popular elephant sanctuary and thousands of residents and tourists were forced to evacuate while the city economic zone was badly damaged, according to Chiang Mai governor Nirat Pongsitthavorn. Evacuations are ongoing at the Elephant Nature Park, which is home to more than a hundred elephants. EPA/MAEJO RESCUE ASSOCIATION HANDOUT HANDOUT EDITORIAL USE ONLY/NO SALES
