Elephants do look really smiley, which is surely one reason they are so lovable. Unfortunately, they even look smiley when they are being mistreated or exploited - a built in hazard of their natural physiognomy and our human tendency to anthropomorphize. ("See? He LIKES hauling timber!") That said, walking baby elephants around to visit with sea lions sounds like one of the best jobs imaginable. (I envy Ozron.)
