Water-logged: Zebras plough through the waters at Safari World in Minburi District, Bangkok, Thailand, which has been inundated by flooding Terrified and with nowhere to go but the small areas of dry land that remain, these are the animal victims of the flooding that has devastated Thailand.
In Ayutthaya, a distressed group of elephants is facing its second month cut off by the stagnant waters as they shelter on a concrete island at an animal sanctuary.
The group of 17 include seven animals aged under four years who were too small to flee when the rest of their herd were led to safety in the city north of Bangkok.

But the little ones cannot because they would drown if they stepped into the 6-foot-deep water.
'Yes the elephants are upset. I'm upset too,' keeper Parinnam said. "We're the same, humans and elephants.'
Elsewhere, hundreds of animals living in Safari World, Bangkok, were rescued and moved to higher ground after their enclosures were flooded overnight. Zebras and deer were among the animals affected.

But it has also led to a shortage of essential car parts to UK, U.S. and Canada Honda plants resulting in production being halved in those countries.
Workers at Honda's Swindon factory have been told work has been cancelled for tomorrow and Friday.

In the worst floods in half a century, many of Bangkok's government-run shelters sit largely empty, even as the submerged streets in some of the city's hardest-hit areas are still bustling with a constant stream of people wading, floating and boating in and out.
The city says it has no estimate for the actual number of Bangkok's nine million residents affected by the deluge, but population figures suggest they have impacted a far greater number than the 11,000 who have moved into the city's evacuation centres.

Many in Bangkok's 15 flooded districts have likely moved in with relatives or friends in unaffected areas, but swamped neighborhoods still show signs that life goes on despite disaster.
Along Don Muang's Chang Akat Uthit Road, the neighborhood duck restaurant was closed.
So were the two convenience stores, the gold shop and even the Party House pub.

But in the middle of the street people were ferrying supplies into the neighbourhood, some carrying jugs of cooking oil, sacks of rice or styrofoam boxes of fresh food, while others were leaving, carrying valuables such as TVs and electric fans toward drier ground.
The Thai Red Cross Society, said the group has been sending 3,000-3,500 relief packs every day into flood-hit neighbourhoods in Bangkok as well as the nearby provinces of Pathum Thani and Nonthaburi.
