This Bulborb attacks with a long, flexible tongue which allows it to quickly devour Pikmin from much greater distances than other members of the Grub-Dog family. It also does not appear to sleep when unaware of the presence of Pikmin. Instead, it will rummage through the ground and sniff around in the surrounding area much like a [[Dwarf Red Bulborb]].

When a captain and/or a Pikmin is nearby, it will quickly shuffle towards them. If the Pikmin are standing within attack range, it will launch its tongue outward as a means of capturing them. Up to five Pikmin can be snagged at a time by this move. However, if Pikmin are standing beside it, or are attacking its feet, it will lap up individual Pikmin one at a time at a slightly slower pace than normal bulborbs.<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5HOxmVH92o&feature=related</ref> Once it has spotted the player, it will begin to scout the entire map until it has found them.

The '''Whiptongue Bulborb''' is an enemy first appearing in ''[[Pikmin 3]]''. It is a member of the [[Grub-dog]] family, but is different from the others in that it has a long tongue that it uses to slurp up [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]]. Its tongue can catch up to 5 Pikmin at once, somewhat like the [[Emperor Bulblax]], but less destructive. It has a brown face with a long snout at the end that the tongue comes out of, a white body with black spots, and blue eyes. Unlike its other Grub-dog relatives, it may not be nocturnal, as they are found awake in the wild, similar to the [[Spotty Bulbear]] in ''[[Pikmin 2]]''.However in [[tropical wilds]] they are found in the end of the day cutscene: This may mean they are cathemeral,active during the day and night.

==Trivia==
*In the ''Pikmin 3 ''Website'' ''notes, it states that it's part of the "Bulborb Family," even though the correct term is "Grub-dog."
**Saying "Bulborb Family" instead could lead people to believe Dwarf Bulborbs are part of that family even though they aren't.
