Fire Snakes are long, snake-like creatures composed of fireballs who have appeared as uncommon enemies in several Mario games.
The first appearance of Fire Snakes was in Super Mario Bros. 3, where they appeared in Desert Land. If a Fire Snake saw Mario, it would try to touch them with it's flaming body. A Fire Snake could only be defeated by either hitting it with a Shell. by having Mario touch it while he is empowered by a Starman or by having Mario whack it with his tail as either Raccoon Mario or Tanooki Mario. They later made rare appearances in Super Mario World.
In Yoshi's Safari, only two Fire Snakes appear as mini-bosses; in order to defeat these Fire Snakes, who will try to touch Mario and Yoshi, Mario must blast them repeatedly with his Super Scope.
Fire Snakes also appear as uncommon enemies in New Super Mario Bros. in the game's second world. These Fire Snakes will try to attack Mario by chasing him and by trying to touch him. The Fire Snakes of New Super Mario Bros. can be defeated by throwing a Shell at them, by luring them off ledges and by touching them when Mario is empowered by a Starman.
Appearances in Other Media
Fire Snakes made a few minor appearances in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3.
Trivia
- Oddly, the Fire Snakes of Yoshi's Safari are blue in color, possibly symbolizing their status as mini-bosses, as a blue flame is hotter than a red one. Additionally, the Fire Snakes of Yoshi's Safari have eyes on all their body segments, instead of just one.
