Who was the Carthaginian general that brought elephants across the Alps to attack Rome?
Hannibal invaded Italy. He brought 32 elephants with him. The elephants were war elephants and were brought to use them to attack the Roman armies, not to cross the Alps, which was a difficult feat for these animals which were gigantic and from very hot climates. Most of his elephants (if not all of them) died while crossing the Alps in the snowy winter.

Hannibal led his army, along with many horses and several elephants, across the Alps during the winter in an attempt to ambush the Roman general Scipio's army.

This was a failed attempt though, because Scipio then attacked Carthage, forcing Hannibal to return home and defend his country.
