Variant of Thwomp

Tail Thwomp[1] is an enemy in Super Mario 3D Land. They are Thwomp with a raccoon tail that act very similarly to Grindels and Thwimps. Tail Thwomps can jump about in a wide set area, unlike the regular stationary Thwomps. When they float, it is reminiscent of the way Tanooki Mario floats, complete with the accompanying sound effect. Unlike some Thwomps, Tail Thwomps have a face on only one side, due to the tail on their back, which Mario can bounce off to help reach their top. Tail Thwomps can be defeated if Mario transforms into Statue Mario and either lands on them or has them land on him, like normal Thwomps. Only two Tail Thwomps are ever encountered, both in World 5-1.
