Miranda Kerr Donates $100,000 to Elephant Charity
Caring supermodel Miranda Kerr has donated a jumbo-sized US$100,000 to baby elephants.
The 30-year-old Australian personally handed over the cheque last month to Soraida Salwala, Founder and Secretary General of the Friends of the Asian Elephant (FAE). The donation was made at a hotel Ms Kerr was staying at in Bangkok.
The funds will go to ensuring juveniles at the special hospital in Lampang, Thailand, will remain nourished.
Ms Salwala explains: "We have elephants like baby Naka, who is now one years old. His mother tried to kill him at birth, but we fed him for one year with goat milk to help him grow.
"Miss Miranda Kerr's generous donation of US$100,000 will be for our milk fund. In her honour we have named the fund "Miranda Kerr's Baby Elephants Milk Fund". She is a beautiful and good woman to help elephants.
"When I thanked her, Miss Kerr said she appreciated what my foundation was doing and she was happy to know about FAE and happy to help our good cause."
Since FAE built the world's first elephant hospital in MaeYao National Reserve in 1993 they have treated over 3,900 cases of sick and injured elephants.
Elephants brought to the hospital have often been poorly treated by owners or have suffered horrendous injuries through incidents such as stepping on land mines.

Animal Magic - The Work Of Richard Austin
ANIMAL MAGIC - THE WORK OF RICHARD AUSTIN
Richard Austin is known throughout the photography world as one of the best in the business at capturing unique animal images. So far he has released four books showcasing some of his work, including 'Animal Magic' and 'Dogs and Puppies'.
Richard started off as newspaper photographer, but whose brighter pictures began to creep into his work as they became a more popular alternative to the typical "gloom and doom" stories he found himself stuck with.
"I've always been interested in wildlife, ever since I was a kid. My heroes were the Daily Mirror's Arthur Sidey and the Daily Mail's Mike Hollist - they were really good animal photographers. I remember some cracking images that they took and I was always attracted to that."
Although he is perhaps more associated with cute images of piglets in deckchairs or lambs playing with ducklings, plenty of his photography is of animals in the wild in their natural habitats.
However, he is quick to point out the difference between his work and that of a National Geographic photographer for example:
"There's wildlife photography and then there's animal photography," said Richard, "I'm not the kind of photographer that sits down a rabbit hole for three days with a couple of cheese sandwiches and a flask of coffee. I've got to know that something's happening somewhere. The most I'll give it is an hour. And if nothing's happened I'll go and come back again later.
"There are some great wildlife photographers out there but I try to aim for more comical pictures that people might find more attractive"
This may dispel a few myths about photograp...
