Baby Sheegoth
Baby Sheegoths are the infant form of Phendrana's primary predator, the Sheegoths. They attack by ramming, firing large balls of energy, or frigid breath. Sheegoths' bodies are resistant to attacks, but their backsides are vulnerable. If Samus can break through the ice shell, she can quickly defeat Baby Sheegoths.
Like other ice based creatures, Baby Sheegoths can be defeated quickly with the Plasma Beam.

When Samus attempts to acquired the Wave Beam, she is attacked by a group of four Baby Sheegoth. After they are defeated an adult Sheegoth attacks. Once Samus defeats Thardus, Baby Sheegoth become less common as the adults move into more areas.
Baby Sheegoths resemble reptiles or amphibians. They rely on ramming attacks and, at a distance, the creatures resort to burst projectiles. Their main weakness is their sensitive backsides, only exposed when their icy shell is broken. They are also usually met in small packs of two or three.

With this being their only weak point, Baby Sheegoths will turn quickly in order to not allow predators the opportunity to strike at their backs. Powerful hunters, they fire bursts of ultracold gas at potential prey, then feast on their frozen victim." — Logbook "Baby Sheegoth" (Metroid Prime)
