Withered Deku Baba

Withered Deku Babas are recurring enemies in the Zelda series.

Characteristics
Withered Deku Babas are a variant of Deku Baba that only attack Link when he walks through or by them. They do not lunge forward, but simply extend upwards. Because they are withered, attacking the bud does not yield Deku Nuts. Withered Deku Babas only yield Deku Sticks.

They appear in the Kokiri Forest and Inside the Deku Tree in, and Termina Field, the Southern Swamp, and Woodfall Temple in. They particularly thrive in Secret Grottos.
