In the turn-based strategy video game Sid Meier's Civilization II, the Elephant replaced the Chariot. Well, I've wondered this since playing that game: Have there ever been chariots pulled by elephants?

AKA, have there ever been "chariotephants" - teams of elephants pulling chariots? Could any ancient elephant handler ever have successfully mounted an elephant in front of a chariot to pull them?

I'm guessing a "chariotephant" was no more than a neologism that I developed back when I first played this game in middle school...

As a child, when I read a list of facts about elephants, I learned that they die at age 70 due to starvation since they cannot chew when their teeth fall out. Are there elephant dentures and implants nowadays?

How much longer do they get to live when Dentures or implants are put in them in order to keep eating like before?

I also learned that elephants can never get cancer because of some kind of unique genetic makeup, so what else do they die from in their old age? And how long do they live with dentures and implants?

Circus

There's a particular circus in town this weekend. I feel protesting doesn't "sell" the wrongfullness that they still have animals including elephants. There are many businesses in the area that have their free ticket vouchers and billboards. It makes me completely sad and angry, yet helpless. Is this just a Michigan thing? Don't want to name them, but known for their Red solo cup type hats with tassels.

Got to do something incredible yesterday

To clear up some concerns, this is at an AZA accredited zoo, and no touching was involved. There’s also way more space than this.
