The Elmer Traffic Safety Program was developed in 1947 by Toronto Police Inspector Vern Page in response to community concerns over the increasing number of collisions involving children. Originally sponsored by the Toronto Telegram newspaper, Elmer became an immediate success. During the program's first year, traffic mishaps among Toronto school children dropped 44 per cent while motor vehicle registration in that city increased by more than 10 per cent. The Safety Elephant's fame grew. Other Ontario communities asked for the program. Demand became so strong that the Telegram, owner of the copyright, authorized the Ontario Safety League to administer the program in Ontario outside Toronto. Elmer's following grew by leaps and bounds to encompass schools throughout that province, and results as successful as those in Toronto were reported at once.

Why is there a cow on the Elmer's glue bottle?
It isn't a cow, it's a bull named Elmer, husband of Borden's Elsie the cow. Some glues are made from rendered cows hooves (as are gelatin products like Jel-O), leading some people to joke about the cow on the Elmer's bottle being representative of its ingredients. In an episode of The Simpsons, vegetarian Lisa hallucinated that the cow on her glue bottle accused her with: "You won't eat my meat, but you glue with my feet."
Is Elmer's glue toxic for gerbils?
There are now so many "Elmer's " glues (over 12 ) that it is no longer sufficient to just say "Elmers glue"If you mean the white glue, i don't think a little bit is toxic , but I would keep it out of their reach anyway. However they now make other adhesives that are possibly toxic to small animals.
