'''Keatons''' are a race of fox-like creatures. They are first mentioned in {{OoT}}, and appear as allies in {{MM}} and as enemies in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]''.


Keaton's characteristics are derived from the mythological Japanese fox creature, [[Wikipedia:Kitsune|kitsune]], and its appearance may also be a reference to [[ssb:Pikachu|Pikachu]], or [[bp:Ninetales (Pokémon)|Ninetales]], both [[bp:Pokémon|Pokémon]] characters. They have yellow fur and three tails with black fur on the tip of each tail; Keatons are said to recognize one another by the sheen of their tails.<ref>{{cite|Hee-hee-ho! Hello, child.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==

*Enemy Keatons share similar characteristics to [[Wosu]] from {{AoL}}: both have a [[Wikipedia:Canidae|canine]] appearance, are fast, fairly weak, and steal from Link (be it Rupees or EXP).
*The Keatons in [[Dark Hyrule Castle]] in ''The Minish Cap'' have a different palette from Keatons elsewhere in the game, but they have the same amount of health and are identical from a gameplay standpoint. The same is true of that game's [[Moblin]]s.
