QUIRKY WORLD ... Hey... I got you babe. Cher helps out a lonely elephant

PAKISTAN: The plight of a lonely elephant in a Pakistani zoo has inspired help from pop icon Cher.

Cher first became aware of 29-year-old Kavaan’s plight when pictures of the elephant in chains with only a dilapidated shed for shelter and a small, dirty pond to play in spread on social media.

Cher sent her representative, Mark Cowne, to Islamabad to check up on Kavaan, who has been kept chained for 27 of his 29 years at the Maraghazar Zoo in Islamabad.
