Stampy is a fictional elephant appearing in The Simpsons animated television series. In the episode "Bart Gets an Elephant," 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, but Bart caused a major uproar when he was denied the elephant. KBBL mangement forced DJs Bill & Marty to give Bart the elephant or else they would be fired and replaced by a machine.
The elephant soon causes trouble (and a burning hole in the family wallet) and a poacher, Mr. Blackheart, offers to buy him, but the Simpsons decide to give him to a wildlife reserve.
Stampy is alluded to in other episodes. 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 turns up in the episode "Large Marge", involved in a gimmick by Krusty the Klown.
Stampy enjoys putting people in his mouth and is especially fond of peanuts.
