==''Master Quest''==
The dungeon has many strange changes in the {{OoTMQ}} version of the game. Instead of uvula-like switches on the ceilings of Jabu Jabu's intestinal tract, now cow head switches that are attached to walls operate the opening of doors. As far as enemies go, [[Lizalfos]] and [[Like Like]]s were added to several rooms, the [[Parasitic Tentacle]]s were dispersed evenly and in larger quantities throughout Jabu Jabu's insides, and invisible [[Keese]] were supplied to one room that includes an extra [[Gold Skulltula]]. Only three [[Tailpasaran]]s appear in an optional room with a Gold Skulltula, and [[Business Scrub]]s were deleted from the Master Quest version. In terms of items, the [[Dungeon Map]], [[Compass]], and [[Boomerang]] can be obtained much earlier; the room that contained the Boomerang in the original version now contains the Compass, and vice versa. Other changes include the placement of a grown cow in a room, the addition of a water pillar in the suckhole room, and the presence of [[Bombchu]]s, used to complete various new puzzles throughout the dungeon. Princess Ruto is utilized much less as a gameplay mechanic, as she is only required to hit only one switch.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly may have been inspired by the dungeon [[Catfish's Maw]] from {{LA}}. Both lie in an enclosed body of water and involve entering the mouth of a giant fish (though the catfish is not actually real).
*Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly is the first dungeon in {{OoT}} to have a unique dungeon theme, as the themes pertaining to the [[Inside the Deku Tree|Deku Tree]] and [[Dodongo's Cavern]] are both used elsewhere, like in [[Cave|grottos]] and the [[Royal Tomb]] respectively.
*[[Link]] cannot get the [[Zora's Sapphire]] on his own from the room where he fights the [[Big Octo]]. He must throw [[Princess Ruto|Ruto]] into the platform to get it.
*In the first room after fighting the [[Big Octo]], there is a ramp to the right. If the player changes the camera angle so that it goes through the wall for a few seconds, a [[Hookshot]] target can be seen.{{fact}}
*This is the only dungeon in the game where Link is accompanied by another character (Princess Ruto) when he is warping to the dungeon's exit after defeating a boss.
*A remixed version of the dungeon's theme was used in {{TWW}} as [[Jabun]]'s theme.
*A remixed version of the dungeon's theme was used in {{TWW}} as [[Jabun]]'s theme.
*In {{OoT3D}}, the dungeon can be accessed as an adult using a glitch. Link must approach the ice slope that replaces Jabu-Jabu and walk along its left edge. If done correctly, Link will walk inside the dungeon.
*If you glitch inside as Adult Link in {{OoT3D}}, the only thing stopping you from entering the room where you fought barinade and using the warp is a switch that requires the [[Boomerang]] to hit. It is unknown what would happen if you used the warp though it would most likely softlock or crash the game.
