A Zombie in Wario Land 3

Zombies[1] appear in Wario Land II and Wario Land 3 as tall, humanoid beings that are enemies encountered mainly in caves, dark rooms, at cities during nighttime, and other dark areas. The head of the zombie can be separated from the body and serves as its main weapon. In Wario Land II, zombies are seen as white or gray motionless heads that lie on the ground in dark areas. When Wario approaches them, they rise from the ground and throw their heads at Wario three times. If the head hits Wario, he turns into Zombie Wario. A zombie disappears if Wario touches its body while separated from the head, though the zombie quickly respawns afterward, but an attack from Zombie Wario can defeat a zombie entirely. In Wario Land 3, Zombies are green, do not appear as skulls before rising, are quicker than before, and less predictable. To attack, they throw their heads at Wario that travels forward that turn backwards after a set distance, and then disappear to respawn once again after some time passes. Aside from Zombie Wario, Zombies in Wario Land 3 can also be defeated by Hot Wario or from an enemy being thrown at it.

In Wario Land 3, Zombies appear in the following levels in the mentioned quantities:
