Toriuo are bird-like fish found in the Hippo stage and Turtle Zone of Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. Much like Cheep Cheeps, they jump out of a body of water and attack anything in their way. However, Toriuo glide in the air a bit longer than Cheep Cheeps, using their wings to fly through the air. To defeat a Toriuo, Mario can jump or throw a Fireball at them.
