They either remain stationary in the air or fly around in a set pattern. Blue Hootzes are most often featured in flocks consisting of two or more. Since they are permanently covered in a frosty aura, Blue Hootzes are difficult to defeat, being harmful and impervious to even [[Cranky Kong]]'s [[Cane Bounce]] or [[Rambi]]. The [[Kong]]s can only defeat a Blue Hootz by throwing a [[barrel]] or another projectile at it, or by using [[Kong POW]] within range.
