"Pack it up, Pachy--you're goin' to the bush leagues"

If you are a bad baseball player, you get transferred from the major league Seattle Mariners to the minor league Tacoma Rainiers.

Evidently, the same holds true in the animal world. Prickly pachyderm Bamboo, an Asian elephant at Woodland Park Zoo, is moving to Tacoma's Point Defiance Zoo, a "national leader" in mammal misfits.

What's Bamboo's major malfunction? The 38-year-old female lashes out at the younger elephants (possibly because of their obsession with low-rise jeans). She'll be shipped south this month in a specially-outfitted tractor trailer.

Elephants make big poops.
