History
The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3
In The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode "7 Continents for 7 Koopas," when Bowser tries to conquer the entire Real World, he puts Kooky von Koopa in charge of Africa. Kooky uses his magic wand to turn all of Africa's animals (including a lion, giraffe, zebra, gorilla, and an African elephant) into stuffed animals. Luigi later steals Kooky's wand and turns the stuffed animals back to normal. The animals then proceed to chase Kooky.
