For a little kid, there are few more tragic losses than when a treasured stuffed animal goes missing. 

And while nothing can fill that terrible void, sometimes the dorks on r/photoshopbattles can help.

Redditor kontankarite posted the following message: "Friend's son lost his favorite toy. Parents said the elephant is traveling around the world. Would love to share images of his travel with his son." 

While Redditors aren't always known for charitable giving, they took the request seriously, and the results are both adorable and enviable. 

Take a look at this inanimate object seeing the world and having a better time than you.

First, the lost elephant.

Right before he, um, goes on the adventure of a lifetime!
