KOTA KINABALU: Another Borneo Pygmy elephant has been rescued from a poacher’s trap in the east coast of Sabah as endangered jumbos in the state continue to face threat of extinction.
Sabah Wildlife Department rangers rescued a young male elephant, aged between seven and nine years, that suffered an injury on its front right leg due to a snare in the Taliwas area of Lahad Datu late Tuesday (Aug 14).
