This was just on the CFA web site, I believe these are the Circus Gatti Elephants.

The first day Mac started me out on the Besalou elephants in 1965, I asked, "Do I have to use a whip?" and he said "Of course not, it's only for show."

Buckles,
Did Mac train with a whip? A lot of his acts, that were worked by others, used a whip.

When you start poppin that whip it sure makes them close their eyes. Only useful for me was to keep them trunked up when doing one of those "behaviors"
