 Tragically, on April 22, 2023, Noor Jehan passed away despite the diligent efforts of local veterinarians and Four Paws International. The 17-year-old African elephant's condition worsened while undergoing treatment for a tumor and hemorrhage. In response to this unfortunate event, animal protection organizations have called for improved care for wild animals held in captivity in Pakistan and the repatriation of Madhubala, Noor Jehan's companion.
-The treatment of animals in Pakistani zoos has long been a subject of criticism, with elephants frequently experiencing premature death due to obesity and heightened levels of stress. In light of these concerns, the government has pledged to establish an impartial zoo management committee and advocate for necessary changes to address the situation and enhance animal welfare standards.
+Post death it was determined that Noor Jehan had broken legs.
