Animal Information
|
Stampy is a rogue African elephant that Bart owned. Bart wins the elephant in a radio contest called "KBBL Wants to Give You Something Stupid." The listener was supposed to take $10,000 cash instead of the elephant (which was a gag prize), but Bart caused a major uproar when he was denied the elephant. KBBL management forced DJs Bill and Marty to give Bart the elephant or else they would be fired and replaced by a machine [1].
The elephant soon causes trouble (and a burning hole in the family wallet). A poacher and ivory dealer, Mr. Blackheart, offers to buy him, but the Simpsons decide to give him to a wildlife reserve after Stampy rescues Homer (and Barney Gumble) from drowning in a tar pit.
At Apu's wedding, Bart sees Apu riding an elephant. Bart comments "I wish I had an elephant." "You did," Lisa replies. "His name was Stampy. You loved him" to which Bart simply replies, "Oh yeah." Stampy also was involved in a gimmick by Krusty the Klown [2]. Stampy attacks a bear as well[3].
Stampy enjoys putting people in his mouth and is especially fond of peanuts. He is also very aggressive against other elephants as seen when he is first brought to the wildlife reserve.
During Trappuccino, he can be seen helping the towns people break the dome. He was the first to make a crack on it [4].
