'''Urchins''' are spiked aquatic creatures that have appeared as enemies and obstacles throughout the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]]. As their name and appearance suggest, they are based on real-life {{wp|sea urchin}}s. They are slow, yet tough enemies that [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] must avoid usually because they cannot be defeated by normal means, like a single [[jump]]. Although they live mostly underwater, Urchins can also live on land. They first appeared in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. | '''Urchins''' are spiked aquatic creatures that have appeared as enemies and obstacles throughout the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]].

[[Blooper]] also tosses Urchins at the players in its boss minigame, [[Blooper Barrage (minigame)|Blooper Barrage]]. They target a specific player, and their course can be redirected by hitting it with a [[cannonball]].
