Burrbos are hedgehog-like creatures that appear in the Mario universe. They first appeared in Super Mario Odyssey as a common, low-level enemy that appears in various kingdoms, notably first seen in the Cascade Kingdom. They can also be commonly found in the Another World bonus level challenge sections.
Description
Burrbos have thorns on the top of their heads, usually colored green, orange, yellow, pink or blue. Their eyelids also match this color. Their eyes resemble Cappy's and have red pupils. They have a mouth similar to that of a Goomba. They have thin, stilt like legs that expand towards the bottom to give them feet.
Behavior
Burrbos tend to be found within a group and will leap towards Mario when they see him. They do not walk around, instead moving only through leaping. They can be taken out with a hat throw by Cappy; Mario cannot stomp on them. They regenerate notably much faster than any other enemy in the game, popping out from the ground mere seconds after being killed.
Etymology
Burrbo is seemingly a combination of "burr", a word relating to thorns and "kuribo", the Japanse name for Goomba. The "bo" part of kuribo means "people" or "person", so it's likely that the name is meant to be taken as thorn person/people.
