Snapper

This article is about the enemy from Majora's Mask. For the enemy from Spirit Tracks, see Snapper (Spirit Tracks).

Snappers are the turtle-like enemies in Majora's Mask. To kill them, Link must transform to his Deku form and hide in a Deku Flower. When a Snapper charges at him, Link must jump out of the flower and hit its underbelly. Snappers can also be beaten by flipping them over with a punch from Goron Link, or by simply blowing them up with a bomb (or the Blast Mask).

Gekko, the miniboss in the Woodfall Temple, rides a giant Snapper. After knocking him off his Snapper, Link must shoot him with the Hero's Bow as he crawls across the ceiling.

Trivia

The Terrorpin is another turtle-like enemy that appears in A Link to the Past and Four Swords Adventure. Both have the belly as their weak point, and so must be defeated in a similar manner.
In terms of appearance, Snappers are very similar to the Heatoise mini-boss appearing in Spirit Tracks. They also attack in a similar manner.
