Red variants can also be found, where they instead chase enemies or the player, attempting to bite them. They appear prominently in a level with their own name, [[Gnawsher Lair]].

Gnawshers are winged Chomp-like enemies with golden eyes and teeth that chomp through blocks, other enemies, collectibles, or items, hence their name, which is a combination of "gnaw" and "gnasher". Most Gnawshers have black-colored bodies, and they simply travel straight horizontally or vertically, eating anything in their path. There are also red variants that home-in on targets, similar to the relationship between Bullet Bills and Bull's-Eye Bills. Gnawshers can be defeated by any form of attack.

Gnawshers appear prominently in a level dedicated to them, Gnawsher Lair. In a later point in this level, a Gnawsher can potentially consume the ? Block holding the level's Wonder Flower. If the player is quick enough to get the Wonder Flower before this, the resulting Wonder Effect summons a horde of Wonder Gnawshers from the left, destroying everything in their path (except for certain platforms like lifts).
