Elephants
"This movie will frighten you."
The Romans use horses for riding and racing. They also used them for the cavalry in battles and for messengers. They used them for racing because they were fast moving animals; the same reasoning applied to the military. Remember that the Romans did not use horses for pack animals or for harness work. Ox carts moved heavy equipment and goods, and mules were used as pack animals.
Hannibal, although he never completed his mission of destroying the romans, he knew how to achieve victory but not how to use it.

i dont know but i think they use them to frighten other animals/creatures
Yes. Romans would use animals, including giraffes, to act out mythological scenes.
Yes and no. The Romans did house exotic animals, but only for use in games/killings at the Colosseum. There weren't any domestic Zoo's like there are now.

Hannibal enjoyed a four crushing military victories in the Italian peninsula during his 15-year occupation. Thy were the battles of Ticinus, Trebia, Trasimene, and Cannae. After this, the Romans changed strategy and although Hannibal won a few more battles, he was pushed back into southern Italy by the superior pool of soldiers available to the Roman legions. Then the Romans intercepted his brother, Hasdrubal, who was bringing reinforcements from Spain to his depleted forces, and destroyed his army. In addition to this, they also defeated the Carthaginians in Spain, Hannibal power base, and took over the Carthaginian territories there, thus depriving Hannibal of any chance of further reinforcements. At this point he withdrew to the easily defensible mountains of Calabria (the toe of Italy) and was stuck there for four years. He was recalled to Carthage when Scipio Africanus undertook a campaign in Carthage's homeland (Tunisia). Two elements were the basis of Hannibal's military victories: his military cunning and a superior cavalry. Hannibal was one the greatest military commanders of antiquity. He was a brilliant tactician and his military cunning played an important role in his victories. The superiority of his cavalry was also important. His army was 2/3 cavalry and 1/3 infantry. The Romans and their Italian allies had about 1/3 cavalry and 2/3 infantry. Thus, Hannibal could use his large cavalry to envelope the enemy infantry, attack it at the rear and slaughter the enemy. This is how Hannibal won his greatest victory at Cannae. The cavalry of the Romans and her Italian allies was too small to be able to counter this.
