Pangaea could easily get animal leadership on most commanders without thematic repercussions

I like this idea. There are lots of "handeler" leaders that don't get built very often because you don't really need them (Abysian Serpent Handlers, Pythium Hydra Trainers). If you HAD to have these leaders to handle wild animals it would be thematic and help with the elephant problem.

You might also want to increase the power of some of the other animals thought to help make up for the limitations if you do this (not the elephants though).
