Spinut

Spinut is an enemy in Spirit Tracks, which is encountered in a number of woodland areas. There are two variants of this enemy; a weaker type that is colored with brown and yellow, and a rarer, stronger version which is colored with green and yellow, this one requires more attacks to defeat. They do not pose much of a threat for Link, since one or two strikes from his sword are usually enough to defeat these foes.

Trivia

 * Spinuts bear a slight resemblance to Goombas.
