'''Bulrushes''' are blue ''Triceratops''/bison-like creatures wearing tracksuits that first appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]''.

They appear prominently in a level with their own name, [[Bulrush Coming Through!]]. The player is able to stand on Bulrushes, but they will also try to ram into the player if they get close and will destroy any [[Hard Block]]s or any destructible blocks in their way. If they hit a wall while ramming, they will become stunned for a short time before regaining composure.

Bulrushes are blue creatures based on both Triceratops and bison wearing tracksuits that first appear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. They appear in the levels Bulrush Coming Through!, Bulrush Express, KO Arena Pipe-Rock Rumble, and Expert Badge Challenge Invisibility I. Normally standing idly on two legs, Bulrushes get down on all fours and attempt to ram any player that comes too close to them. Their charging attack allows them to destroy Hard Blocks and any other destructible blocks in their way. Once a Bulrush collides with a wall they cannot destroy, however, they will be stunned for a short time before regaining composure. The player can stand on Bulrushes to ride them as they move. It takes six fireballs from a Fire Flower or a single attack in drill form to defeat a Bulrush. Their English name comes from the American football term "bull rush", referring to their appearance and behavior.[1] It is also a pun on the plant of the same name.
