    Unlike in Europe, I don't think the Ankus or "bullhook" is required by federal organizations, like our USDA. The USDA requires Elephant trainers to have an Ankus when handling elephants around public. and Not everyone uses the Bullhook in an abusive way either as the tool originated in India actually and was merely a Guide, like how we use leashes as a guide for dogs. There is many animal husbandry tools that give people potential to misuse them. I've been to circuses here in the US and handlers carry the "bullhook" but never misuse them - The abusing of the bullhook mostly happened in like the 50s through 70s and now people are trained professionally how to use the Ankus properly, which is communicating with the elephant through touch, not brutality. I know for a fact that in this decade if a handler is found harming an elephant with it, They are fired and blacklisted from getting employees by other circuses. but of course, organizations like PETA will not clear this up because as long as everybody thinks EVERY handler abuses elephants because they hold a Ankus - They get attention and donations. Always look into things and not believe everything thats shared on the internet.

    @@bloodytalonz1138 I have seen animals abused by bullhooks and other tools with my own eyes, I then promised myself to never pay to see animals in circus or any sketchy show ever again. I'd rather encourage the Grandby Zoo, which has enclosures that are astonishingly large and full or enrichment, for animals that were rescued from roadside zoos, circuses and other abusive situations or are in programs to educate as well as to reintroduce endangered species in their natural habitat. Seems more fair to the animals than teaching them tricks and using them as props - not to say that it's abusive in every case, but it's only my personal feeling regarding species we commonly see in circuses.

You can see how much they love him and that they're healthy and happy and like family to him. Truly heartwarming. He is very protective and makes sure they have enough space everywhere they go.

    If it's anything like training lions or tigers or bears (oh my) the rod is used as a focus grabber. Sort of like a conductor's baton. The trainer moves it to get the animal to focus on it, which is why it was used during the choreography 'trick' with the elephants spinning around and laying down.
