#REDIRECT[[Dino Piranha]]
The '''Fiery Dino Piranha''' is a [[boss]] fought in the [[Melty Molten Galaxy]] of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. The character is another type of [[Dino Piranha]]. Its body is dark red, and its head is black with red spots, much like its egg. Its petals are similar to that of a palm tree, and has white lips, like the normal Dino Piranha, but in contrast to the green lips of [[Petey Piranha]]. Its tail lights on fire, it can leave a fiery trail behind it, and, in its final form, it is able to shoot fireballs. It's also much faster than the normal Dino Piranha, which makes it harder for [[Mario]] to strike its tail. The [[player]] can catch up with it by long jumping.
 
 
== Combat ==
 
The beginning of the battle is much like that of the normal Dino Piranha, with Mario landing on the egg and a blind boss trotting around the planet, except the bulb of the tail will ignite and go out in a steady rhythm, forcing Mario to wait until its tail is out before breaking the egg completely.
 
Once the flaming boss emerges from the egg, it will spot Mario and chase him, just like the original boss. However, the bulb's fire will still flicker on and off, again, forcing Mario to wait until the tail is out before striking. This can be tricky, because someone who is chasing the Fiery Dino Piranha might find themselves running right into the trail of flame that the bulb creates.
 
After the first strike, the boss will stomp in anger, and with a swoosh of its fiery tail, continue chasing Mario. After the second strike, the flaming boss will begin shooting fireballs out of its mouth, making the planet arena a much more fiery and dangerous place to walk around. The player must dodge the fireballs and the trails they leave, plus the trail the tail's bulb leaves, and, to many players' frustration, wait until the bulb has lost its fire before delivering the third and final strike.
