Betty White: Baby Orangutan Named After 'Hot In Cleveland' Character
Introducing Elka, the baby orangutan named after Betty White's "Hot In Cleveland" character. The baby Elka's naming comes as an end to the Greater Los Angeles Zoo Association's celebrations in honor of White, its co-chairman. White has been working with GLAZA for 50 years and the naming is part of a partnership with TV Land.
According to a statement, the cable network went with the name "because they are both so adorable and cuddly!"
"How appropriate that the most beautiful baby orangutan ever is named for my 'Hot in Cleveland' character Elka Ostrovsky," White said in a statement. "I'm truly thrilled that TV Land's generous contribution is supporting my beloved Los Angeles Zoo."
