The Swooping Snitchbug is a creature present during both of Captain Olimar's expeditions to the Pikmin Planet. They are legless, round, flying insects that have evolved wing-like antennae as a means of locomotion. They attack by swooping down and grabbing prey. After carrying them for a few seconds, they violently throw them towards the ground. This action would harm most prey, whereas Pikmin are simply replanted and reverted to their original leaf-stem state. These creatures can be brought to the ground themselves if weighed down by a sufficient number of Pikmin, rendering it susceptible to further attack.
