The '''Burrowing Snagret''' is an enemy in the [[Pikmin games]] and the [[:category:bosses|boss]] of [[White Flower Garden]] in [[Pikmin 2]]. It appears to be a combination of a bird and a snake, and a member of the Snavian family (Snavian being a combination of the words ''snake'' and ''avian'', avian meaning "bird-related"). They remain underground for the majority of the time, surfacing only when approached by [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] or a [[Captain]]. Every few times it emerges, the beast gets stuck with only its head above ground, giving a captain an opportunity to attack without fear of losing any Pikmin. When above ground, it attempts to eat Pikmin one by one until it is sufficiently damaged, at which point it burrows back underground.

When killed in [[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin 1]], Burrowing Snagrets explode into many [[pellet]]s; in Pikmin 2, a dead Burrowing Snagret leaves behind its head to be returned to an [[Onion]] or the [[Research Pod]].

Sometimes this creature and the [[Pileated Snagret]] may [[Snagret Glitch|remain alive with what appears to be little or no health]].

==Locations==
Their only locations in the first game are [[The Forest of Hope]] where 3 appear in the same area, and [[The Final Trial]] on [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 1)]]. In Pikmin 2, a Burrowing Snagret is the boss of [[White Flower Garden]], found on [[sublevel]] 5 - this one contains the [[Five-man Napsack]] and many are encountered throughout [[Snagret Hole]]; one is even guarding the entrance in [[Awakening Wood]] where the three in Pikmin 1 are located. Another is on sublevel 4 of [[Hole of Heroes]], and yet another guards the [[Pink Menace]] in the [[Valley of Repose]]. Burrowing Snagrets are the most common boss-class enemies in Pikmin 2, having eight different in-game occurrences outside of [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]].

==Ship Log==
''"This large, subterranean life-form suddenly erupts from underground to feast on nearby Pikmin. Its body is covered in slick scales, which render Pikmin attacks ineffective. Surely, it has a weak point somewhere..."''

==How to kill==
[[Image:Burrowing_Snagret(PikminNPC).jpg|thumb|left|220px]]
In Pikmin 1, they are extremely hard to beat without losing Pikmin if thrown at the head, as they have very high health and are larger than in the second game. In Pikmin 2, defeating one is an easier task because of its lower health; even so, it remains a good idea to use [[Purple Pikmin]].

If you are cautious, it is easy to take advantage of the fact that sometimes, the beast will not fully emerge, getting stuck. Attack when this happens and run away when it does not, and Olimar should kill the Burrowing Snagret without losing any Pikmin. With quick, accurate throwing, however, this is not necessary to secure a deathless battle: throw many Pikmin at its head as soon as possible and the Snagret should die before managing to swallow any of the Pikmin it may have snatched up from the ground.

It is not possible to defeat the Burrowing Snagret with [[captain]]s alone.

==In Super Smash Bros. Brawl==
*A Burrowing Snagret is seen as a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Its description is as follows:

''A member of the snavian family with a birdlike head and a snakelike neck and body. An underground dweller, the snagret makes sudden strikes aboveground to capture surface-dwelling prey. It uses its beak to scoop up daily nutrition and can snatch up three Pikmin at once--a relatively small amount made deadly by its strike speed. No one has ever seen its tail.'' 

==Trivia==

*The Burrowing Snagret can be seen in a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7x245evHAhQ beta video] of Pikmin 1, where it appears to have a light or white body.
===Burrowing Snarrow===
In the in-game [[Piklopedia]], the information provided speaks of a creature called the ''[[Burrowing Snarrow]]'', this creature having never been seen in any game. The Burrowing Snarrow is also mentioned in [[Pikmin 1|the first game]], in the [[Enemy Reel]].
