Cher greets ‘world’s loneliest elephant’ after seven-hour flight to Cambodia

Latest update: ‘Former loneliest elephant in the world’ makes a friend in Cambodia

An elephant flown from captivity in Pakistan to Cambodia on Monday will no longer be the “world’s loneliest” after a rescue that took years to arrange.

The case of Kaavan – an overweight, 36-year-old bull elephant – sparked global uproar from animal rights groups, who petitioned for his move from an Islamabad zoo accused of substandard care and conditions.

His cause was boosted by a spirited social media campaign by the singer Cher, who travelled to Pakistan to see him off.

I normally won't read anything which has Cher's name in the article but made an exception here.  She is to be complimented for this action. :0012:

 Never been a fan of Cher and Sonny and Cher was a little before my time,

I do like elephants. So good for her. I’m kind of jealous, actually. I’m glad the elephant will finally have a good life.

I'd rather Cher's ticket to Phnom Penh had been one-way, but stopped clock and all that.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Don't blame me.  I was buying Led Zeppelin and Rush albums.
