Bright pack of Indian elephant parade in London

Tons of "elephants" have made their way onto the streets of London in an effort to raise funds toward the conservation of Asian elephants.  The Elephant Family is the largest elephant charity in the World to raise funds for the conservation of Asian elephant. The 260 elephants on parade in London were brought by trustees and patrons like  Priya and Cyrus Vandrevala, founders of The Vandrevala Foundation; a charitable social enterprise focused on making a sustainable difference for those in need.

The 260 elephants will brighten and beautify the city in every park, street corner and building from May to July 2010. This is considered as London’s biggest outdoor art event on record.

To raise money, each of the elephants has been sponsored and will be auctioned. One of the most popular elephants is a white-coloured elephant beside an enormous bronze flower, also white, by the sculptor Mark Quinn, one of four elephants sponsored by the Indian private equity investor Cyrus Vandrevala and his wife, Priya.
