An elephant that lived alone for 67 years in a Tokyo zoo has died in her concrete pen at the age of 69.
Hanako, or "flower child", was described by animal rights campaigners as the loneliest elephant in the world and had been the subject of a global campaign.
She was a gift from the government of Thailand in 1949, and had lived in a small enclosure at Inokashira Park Zoo since she was two years old.
Hanako is believed not to have seen another elephant since arriving in Japan.
Zoo spokesperson Naoya Ohashi said Hanako was discovered lying on her side on Thursday morning and repeated efforts to raise her upright were unsuccessful. She died peacefully in the afternoon.
Another example of Human behaviour which makes me want to throw up.
