Turtles[1] are enemies in Wario World. They are encountered in Shivering Mountains only. These small, blue, green-shelled enemies are always carrying a large chunk of ice, and they will attempt to obstruct Wario. A Dash Attack, Mega Toss, Piledriver, or Wild Swing-Ding will destroy the ice chunk, revealing the Turtle underneath. Turtles are defenseless without their ice chunks, and can be knocked out and picked up by Wario like with most other enemies.
