In the '90s, Animorphs spread through culture faster than Yeerks through an unsuspecting human colony.

The book series detailed the lives of a few middle schoolers tasked with the very adult responsibility of protecting the planet by transforming into a variety of animals, which doesn't make much sense to us anymore but we'll let it pass.

While some of these animals made perfect sense to morph into (gorillas are very strong, horses are very fast), others did not. In Animorphs #39: The Hidden a girl honestly morphs into a water buffalo. To save the earth. Her plan to save the earth somehow involves morphing into a water buffalo.

Here are eight other Animorphs that probably would not help the earth stave off an alien invasion or, for that matter, any crime at all.
