Miranda Kerr has shocked the world by stripping off and chaining herself to a tree to help save koala bears.
The Victoria Secret model has gone au naturel on the cover of the Aussie edition of Rolling Stone magazine to boost the campaign to help save the cute creatures' habitat.
Miranda, who was born in Austrailia, hopes her risque photoshoot will help attract more people to join her koala crusade.
She tells the mag, "I feel strongly about the need to protect our natural environment because it supports our life - it really is that simple.
"It's a sad thing - there are only about 100,000 koalas left in Australia. Something like 80 per cent of the koalas' habitat has been destroyed since Europeans arrived in Australia.
"The great thing about having people recognise you is you can try to make a positive difference - that's what I'm trying to do, especially for young women."

This is totally cool. Its an issue that is not often in the public eye or conciousness but the destruction of native habitats for housing and farming needs to be addressed before its too late
