This March 21, 2009, file photo shows elephants washing vehicles at Wildlife Safari in Winston, Ore., as trainer Timothy Hamilton holds a device called a bullhook. Representatives from People from the Ethical Treatment of Animals object to the use of the bullhooks, saying they force animals to act under the threat of pain.
