The recent post-mortem report of 17-year-old elephant Noor Jehan of Karachi Zoo has revealed a distressing reality. The report stated that the elephant had been paralyzed for the last four months, and her back legs were broken. The news has sparked outrage among animal welfare activists and concerned citizens.
A wake-up call for the authorities
It is heart-wrenching to imagine the suffering that Noor Jehan must have gone through in her final months. The report highlights the negligence and apathy towards animal welfare in Pakistan. The country lacks proper laws to protect animals, and the authorities are often complacent in enforcing regulations that do exist.
This tragic incident should serve as a wake-up call for the authorities to take immediate action to prevent such cruelty towards animals. It is the responsibility of all citizens to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves and demand that animal welfare be given the attention it deserves.
The loss of Noor Jehan is a tragic reminder of the need to prioritize animal welfare and ensure that such incidents never occur again. We owe it to our fellow creatures to treat them with compassion and respect.
