Famed game show host Bob Barker has once again stepped forward to helpanimals in need. Barker is spending $880,000 to fly three elephants to a California sanctuary aboard a private cargo plane.

The last remaining elephants at Toronto Zoo; Thika, Iringa and Toka will soon be enjoying sunny weather at the PAWS Sanctuary in San Andreas, California, after concerns mounted that the cold Canadian climate was unsuitable for the animals.

    Bob Barker is a wonderful person. I miss him on The Price is Right. He was always a wonderful game show host. He is also a wonderful friend to animals. When I read that story it brought a smile to my face. That was very thoughtful of him.

    Were the elephants spayed and neutered?

    Endangered species have no need to be spayed &/or neutered.

    I think there are needy persons, need half of this money or at least a bit of it just to eat and drink.

    There is a bigger picture. People who love animals help animals. People who love people help people. We can't force each other to be anything other than what we are.

    Compassion is compassion. You can tell a lot about a person by how they take care of those (human or animal) who can not take care of themselves.
