The flood waters in the Bangkok area are still very high. In fact the flood zone has expanded since my last posting. Information about flood levels and the like can be found at www.thaivisa.com and www.bangkokpost.com as well as other sources. According to these sources the water should hit peak levels this weekend. Government rescue operations are aimed at helping only human kind. Many pets have had to be abandoned and many wild animals are stranded.
Save Elephant Foundation has crews of volunteers in the area, working to rescue animals.As you can imagine the costs of these operations very high. There are volunteers to feed, animals to feed and house. There are boats which have been rented and purchased.
Several people have asked me how to best donate. Please just go to http://www.serengetiusa.com and click on donate. You may then indicate that the money is to help Save Elephant Foundation. The Serengeti Foundation is a registered 501c charity in the United States. They transfer 100% of the donations they receive to the donee's designated charity. Please help!
