Have you ever heard of bullhooks and cattle prods? That what circuses and slaughterhouses use to get the critters to "move along" or put on a nice show. There's also something called negative reinforcement that "encourages" the animals to do as they're told.

These are wild animals, not dogs playing frisbee. Elephants don't play polo for "fun" in nature.
