Vic: Aust woman trampled to death by an elephant

The family of an Australian woman trampled to death by an elephant in Africa says tributes
are pouring in from KERRIE MORROW's travelling friends around the world.

The 29-year-old had just arrived at Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe and had taken the horse
ride safari as an extra to the organised tour.

She fell off her horse and a female elephant with a calf charged her and trampled her.

KERRIE's elder sister MICHELLE says KERRIE's body will be flown home from Zimbabwe on Friday.

MICHELLE says KERRIE loved to travel and her decision to take the safari reflected
her love of life.
