Kellie Pickler took time off the stage to interact with some of her pachyderm friends.
The country music singer and American Idol alumnus is featured in tonight’s episode of GAC-TV’s Day Jobs. Vegetarian Pickler visited the Elephant Sanctuary in Hohenwald, Tennessee and helped caregivers tend to the animals.
“It’s so worth it to have the opportunity to be this close to them and really learn about their way of life and what they need to survive,” Kellie said. “It’s really, really amazing what the people here at the Elephant Sanctuary are doing. They’re so passionate about their job and that’s so important.”
The Elephant Sanctuary was founded in 1995 and according to the sanctuary’s website, it is the nation’s largest of its kind to house endangered African and Asian elephants. Twenty-four elephants have been able to live out their natural lives since The Elephant Sanctuary was created.
Day Jobs sairs Wednesdays at 10/9 p.m. CT on GAC.
