I opened your article to see if you were going to give us information about the elephants' intelligence and social consciousness, which I understand are awe inspiring. Thanks for the photos.

I write to ask you a favour: please do tell me (I will Follow you) if any Steemit "whale" complains that your donation list is illegal or inappropriate.

I think it is a masterstroke for those of us who work hard to produce valuable 'green content' and then are "rewarded" with two dollars for three days of work!

Some of us write important articles for audiences that are inherently small and/or on topics on which the "whales" do not have a background that allows them to identify what is valuable and what is not.

Giving us the chance to ask for donations is a beautiful step, and I certainly hope you do not got any 'flak' for doing so.
