Joymoti was swept away by floodwaters in Nagaland during the second week of July and was subsequently rescued by local communities with the assistance of government agencies. She sustained multiple injuries during the incident, including wounds to her forehead, right ear, the area above her tail, left inner thigh and abdomen, as well as a deep, maggot-infested wound around her external genital area. Her right eye is severely damaged, leaving her blind in that eye, with persistent tearing. She also has longstanding lameness in her left hind leg, resulting from a fracture sustained during logging, which affects her ability to walk normally and access food and water.
