Kavaan The Elephant Wins A Chance At Life As Ministry Of Climate Change Loses Out In Court

he Ministry of Climate Change (MoCC) has finally lost the initiative. Some days ago, its spokesperson told a media outlet that transporting Kavaan, the only Asian elephant in Pakistan and the loneliest one, abroad would bring a bad name to the country. On Monday, the Islamabad High Court (IHC) named Dr Amir Khalil, the leader of Four Paws team, a friend of court and left the matter of shifting the beast abroad on his advice.

Dr Khalil is a sensible person and has already told me during his interview that Kavaan is fit to be shifted abroad.

Kavaan and two bears are the only animals left in the ill-fated Islamabad’s Murghazar Zoo. It once had nearly 1000 animals and birds. The zoo was not running in an ideal condition but things were not as bad as they turned in the last couple of years.


The Islamabad mayor has been interested in doing anything but what is desired of him. Being head of the Municipal Corporation Islamabad (MCI), he was responsible for keeping the animals in liveable conditions but he was more interested in doing media stunts and politics. As a result, the condition of the animals worsened and citizen groups took the matter to court.
