"Southbound Pachyderm" is a song by the American rock band Primus. It was released as a promotional single from their fourth studio album, Tales from the Punchbowl (1995). A stop-motion animated music video was made for it. The song is about the extinction threat faced by elephants, rhinos and hippos, otherwise known as pachyderms.

Les Claypool said in 2015 that "Southbound Pachyderm" is one of his favorite songs to play live.
