Kaziranga mourns 'Mohanmala', iconic elephant and brave rescuer
Assam's Kaziranga National Park mourns 'Mohanmala', its oldest elephant, who died at 85 due to age-related issues. Arriving in 1970, she played a vital role in anti-poaching patrols, safaris, and rescues. Treated extensively by vets, she passed peacefully. Remembered for her courage, including saving her 'mahout' and calf from a wild elephant, her legacy remains deeply cherished.
