Thai sanctuary struggles to save elephants, animals after flash floods <br /><br />Thai authorities and conservationists struggle to rescue over 100 elephants, dozens of pigs and other animals after flash flooding hit the country's northern Chiang Mai province, a senior official said on Oct. 4, 2024. The elephant is Thailand's national animal and a white elephant, a symbol of good fortune, was featured on the Thai flag, at one point in time. A number of pigs and buffaloes were still stranded in a village that is now completely flooded, said conservationist Saengduan Chailert. <br /><br />REUTERS VIDEO <br /><br />Subscribe to The Manila Times Channel - https://tmt.ph/YTSubscribe <br /> <br />Visit our website at https://www.manilatimes.net <br /> <br />Follow us: <br />Facebook - https://tmt.ph/facebook <br />Instagram - https://tmt.ph/instagram <br />Twitter - https://tmt.ph/twitter <br />DailyMotion - https://tmt.ph/dailymotion <br /> <br />Subscribe to our Digital Edition - https://tmt.ph/digital <br /> <br />Check out our Podcasts: <br />Spotify - https://tmt.ph/spotify <br />Apple Podcasts - https://tmt.ph/applepodcasts <br />Amazon Music - https://tmt.ph/amazonmusic <br />Deezer: https://tmt.ph/deezer <br />Tune In: https://tmt.ph/tunein <br /> <br />#TheManilaTimes <br />#tmtnews <br />#thailand <br />#flashfloods <br />#chiangmai
