Popo

The Popo is an enemy who made its debut in A Link to the Past, and returned in Four Swords Adventures. It resides in the dark palaces such as Eastern Palace, Desert Palace, Misery Mire and Tower of Hera. It is a sentient shambling of tentacles that moves along the sand in hopes of grabbing in prey to sustain on, using colors of orange and blue to lure unsuspecting prey into the beast's maw. These creatures do not actively attack, and thus pose no direct threat. Link confronted these creatures in his adventures and was able to kill them with his sword.
