No, Elephants detest living in a zoo because there are no open areas for them to run about in and many tourists of the zoo distract them. And also they have been given needles to make them not be so mean to the people.

Why are elephants afraid of rats?

The urban legend about elephants being afraid of one of the smallest (mice) has been perpetuated in cartoons, as well as popular animated films such as Disney's 'Dumbo'. It's not clear where the idea came from, but many people have theorized that elephants might be afraid of mice because they fear that the tiny creatures will crawl inside their trunks, irritating them. Elephants in captivity have been exposed to mice because they are frequently found in and around the elephants' feed (hay). Many caretakers have observed mice crawling on the trunks and faces of (awake) elephants and observed that the elephants take absolutely no notice of the mice, much less express fear or in their presence. Based on observations of interactions between elephants and mice, and the apparent peaceful coexistence, it's unclear where the myth may have originated.

Are whales afraid of mice like elephants are?

I don't think they have to be afraid of mice as they never have confronted them, ever. Whales live in water while mice live on dry land, out of water. I don't think that whales are even aware of whether such a thing (mice) actually even exists. My answer would be no.
