He was a citizen of Carthage, on the African coast, who spent years fighting against the Romans and who occupied northern Italy for a time seeking a truce with the Romans. The Romans were tricky and thought if they attacked Carthage that Hannibal would be forced to leave Italy and return to North Africa to defend is homeland. The trick worked and Hannibal returned to North Africa. He left his elephants in the care of several Zoos in Italy.
Because they would be attacked by people here?

They were being harassed and attacked.
Scipio Africanus undertook a campaign in what the Romans called Africa (Tunisia and western Libya), Carthage's homeland. The purpose was to force Hannibal out of Italy. It worked because Carthage recalled Hannibal to fight Scipio, who defeated him at the battle of Zama. After initial stunning victories Hannibal got bogged down in southern Italy and was confined there by the Roman legions. When his brother Hasdrubal, who was bringing reinforcements and siege machines from Spain (the power base of Hannibal), was intercepted and routed in central Italy, Hannibal withdrew to the easily defensible mountains of Calabria (the toe of Italy). He was stuck there for four years.
"Please leave!" in English is Si prega di partire! in Italian.
