Celebrity Feud: Bob Barker vs. Betty White in the Battle for Billy the Elephant

TL;DR
Bob Barker and Betty White, both known for their support of animal welfare, were rumored to have had a feud over the best home for an elephant named Billy. The rumor stemmed from their differing opinions on a planned renovation of the Los Angeles Zoo's elephant exhibit. Barker wanted Billy to be moved to a sanctuary, while White supported the renovation. The feud rumor was never publicly addressed by either Barker or White, and all reports seem to trace back to The National Enquirer. Billy still resides at the zoo, but there are ongoing efforts by Cher and Lily Tomlin to relocate him to a sanctuary.
