The '''Three Little Pigheads''',<ref>"''Mario! We are the Three Little Pigheads. You won't have such an easy time with us!''" - ''Mario vs. Wario'', fifth page.</ref> also known as the '''Three Little Pigs''',<ref>''Nintendo Magazine System'' (AU) Issue #5, page 55.</ref> or simply the '''Pigs''',<ref>"''Three big Pigs leap from their hanging houses in the Mario Zone finale. Hit them each three times to be victorious.''" - ''Nintendo Power'' Volume 43, page 48.</ref> are a trio of pig siblings<ref name=Shogakukan09>「任天堂公式ガイドブック　スーパーマリオランド２ ６つの金貨」 (''Nintendo Kōshiki Guidebook – Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins''), page 09.</ref> who are the [[list of bosses|bosses]] of the [[Mario Zone]] in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]''. Each pig has a different "house" they reside in and have their own attack patterns. The first, '''Buro''',<ref name=Portal>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/character/mario/archives/land2/?lang=en English ''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins'' entry on the official Mario Portal]. ''nintendo.co.jp''. Retrieved August 13, 2022. ([https://archive.ph/xw7hA Archived] August 13, 2022, 13:51:45 UTC via archive.today.)</ref> has a straw house and attacks by rolling back and forth along the screen. The second, '''Bucho''',<ref name=Portal/> has a wooden house and tries to pounce on [[Mario]] by jumping around the screen. The third, '''Bupon''',<ref name=Portal/> has a brick house and attacks by jumping, too, but leaps a bit higher every time. Each can be defeated by [[jump]]ing on them three times or hitting them with six [[fireball]]s, and once one is defeated, the next one starts attacking. Each of the pigs' abodes are based on the classic fairy tale, ''{{wp|The Three Little Pigs}}''.

According to a [[Nintendo Power]] guide, the pigs were waiting their entire lives for a {{wp|Big Bad Wolf|huffing and puffing wolf}}, and believe that Mario is after their home.<ref>"''Waiting for Mario at the end of the Mario Zone are three not-so-little pigs. Each of these pigs has lived his entire life waiting for a huffing and puffing wolf, so they’re a little paranoid. Now, they think that Mario is out to take their home. So what do they do? Go after Mario! The first piggy is relatively tame, but the second has dangerous teeth. The third one is just plain mean. With fireballs and some quick jump moves, you can make all three squeal.''" - The ''Super Game Boy'' Player's Guide, page 24.</ref>

They have also landed a starring role in the ''[[Mario vs. Wario]]'' comic, where [[Wario]] ordered them to attack [[Mario]] with other enemies from ''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins''. Here, Mario (who was oblivious that Wario's monsters were trying to harm him) mistook them for a bowling game and defeated them by knocking one of them (which he was using as a ball) into the other "pins".

''The bosses of the Mario Zone are the three little pigs: the siblings Buro, Bucho, and Bupon. They look after each other from a straw house, a wooden house, and a brick house, respectively. There are 3 of them, so you cannot win without stomping on them a total of 9 times.''
