Indiana Joe is the self-proclaimed greatest treasure hunter in Jungleland. He is a reference to Indiana Jones, although he is slightly overweight and appears to have no facial features except for his eyes, only briefly visible. However, he is quite resourceful, and knows the location of every hidden treasure in Jungleland, as well as every shortcut leading to them.
History[edit]
Indiana Joe's past remains unclear, but he wound up becoming the greatest treasure hunter in Jungleland at some point in his life, learning of all their locations in the process. It is suggested that Indiana Joe had a bad experience with Koopas at some point earlier in his life, due to his display of Koopaphobia. This may be akin to Indiana Jones' fear of snakes.
When Mario, Luigi, Toad and Princess Toadstool's hot air balloon crashes into a quicksand pond in Jungleland, Indiana Joe rescues them with his whip and introduces himself. He then agrees to help Princess Toadstool find the Lost Mushroom, and leads them to the Temple of Koopa, which he refuses to enter due to his Koopaphobia.
While the others go inside the Temple of Koopa, he is inevitably scared off by Kolonel von Koop, who had followed Indiana Joe to the Temple of Koopa with the Koopa Pack. This cowardice allows for Kolonel von Koop to seize the Lost Mushroom from Mario once he makes it out of the Temple of Koopa.
Unable to continue his career as a treasure hunter due to his Koopaphobia, Indiana Joe starts his own babysitting service at his home, and soon finds himself looking after a trio of bratty Mushroom children. Mario's group arrives and asks for Indiana Joe to help them reclaim the Lost Mushroom back from Kolonel von Koop. Unable to take another minute of looking after the kids, Indiana Joe agrees to go along, stating that while Kolonel von Koop may be scary, he is nothing compared to babysitting three brats.
Upon finding the Koopa Pack, Indiana Joe works with Mario to help him get the Lost Mushroom back from Kolonel von Koop by fighting him with his whip. After Kolonel von Koop retreated, Indiana Joe goes home to remove his babysitting service sign, and thanks Mario's group for helping him get over his Koopaphobia. However, Mario uses the Lost Mushroom to fill Indiana Joe's house with pasta, something that Indiana Joe does not seem fond of.

Trivia[edit]
- As Indiana Joe's eyes can be seen in a single scene, and none of the characters react to his absence of a face, it was widely believed that said lack of facial features was an animation error. However, in a 2018 interview, the episode's writer Perry Martin explained that he had described the character as "a dashing caricature of Harrison Ford in a leather jacket and a fedora hat." in the script, but that the character model sheets had Indiana Joe drawn without a face and the episode aired anyway, which Martin speculated was because DIC wanted to avoid a potential lawsuit from Harrison Ford or George Lucas.[8]
