Bob Barker Once Called Betty White His ‘Sworn Enemy’

It is hard to believe that two beloved icons, who both passed away at the age of 99, actually didn’t get along. That’s right, the late Bob Barker and Betty White had a feud before their deaths. Both Barker and White were big animal rights activists and shared a love of all creatures big and small. However, there was one scenario that they didn’t agree about that caused a huge fight where Barker actually called White his “sworn enemy.”

The incident in question happened in 2009 when they fought over the fate of Billy, an elephant located at the Los Angeles Zoo. At the time, Billy was potentially going to be transported to a sanctuary. Barker was in favor of the move, while White supported the zoo and believed it was the best place for Billy. In 2007, a lawsuit was filed against the zoo asking for Billy to be moved to a sanctuary after visitors believed that his mental health was not being fully supported at the zoo.
