Ha!

What an odd couple! Betty White and Slash!

Though they do seem to work pretty well together for this short commercial for the LA Zoo's new LAIR campaign.

Check out the above video to see how similar we really are to the creatures all around us.

Cute..?

Rocker Slash paid a visit to the Los Angeles Zoo Friday to check in on the boa constrictor he donated years ago.

The former Guns N' Roses star handed over his beloved snake after becoming a family man - because he feared the boa might attack his kids.

In a tweet to fans on Friday, the guitarist wrote,

"Just got back from the LA Zoo. Took pix with a few reptiles. Including my pet Boa Constrictor I donated to the zoo yrs ago. He's a Big sweetheart!"

We're sure he's nice, but when it comes to zoo snakes, our hearts belong to @bronxzoocobra!

Celebs like Gavin Rossdale and Slash rolled out for the unveiling of L.A. Zoo's new "Elephants of Asia" exhibit last night.

The six-acre exhibit features three gentle pachyderm transplants from the San Diego Zoo: Tina, Jewel and 25-year-old Billy and is devoted to exploring the connection between elephants and Asian cultures.

The exhibit cost $42 million dollars to build and was accomplished thanks to protestors (like animal enthusiast Slash) last January urging the city to go forward with plans for the elephant exhibit.

We can't wait to see it!

If you live in the Los Angeles area and feel like scoping it out with family or friends, the exhibit is open daily from 10am-5pm!
