Snap Dragon

The Snapdragon is a small yet fearsome plant that hops at great speeds to attack Link. These plants roam the Dark World and can be defeated rather easily by any means necessary. Very little strategy is needed to kill a Beetle, one attack with any offensive item is enough to do away with them.

Trivia

 * A Link to the Past's manual states that these creatures are the result of a mad alchemist's plant experiments.
 * Their name likely comes form the flower of the same name, as it is a plant based enemy.
