Samus commonly encounters Kihunters in various parts on Zebes, being absent only in [[Tourian]] and [[Maridia]]. They will attack Samus by diving towards her then slashing, if Samus destroys the wings of a Kihunter it will spit acid at her.<ref name=Manual>{{Cite manual|These creatures are pirates from another galactic system who helped rebuild Zebes.

Yellow Kihunters are found in the [[Wrecked Ship]], some of which appear without wings. They are stronger than the common green counterparts, while red Kihunters are found in the depths of [[Norfair]], and are one of the strongest enemies in the game. Despite their increased speed and power, Samus can make short work of them with the [[Screw Attack]].

The first Kihunters she encounters are wingless and will shoot acid at her, the Kihunters with wings attack Samus with their powerful stinger ~~that inflicts~~ a high amount of damage if Samus does not have the [[Gravity Suit]].

The first Kihunters she encounters are wingless and will simply hop and shoot acid at her, but the Kihunters with wings attack Samus with their powerful claws and stinger and inflict a high amount of damage if Samus does not have the [[Gravity Suit]]. Like those in ''Super Metroid'', Kihunters will lose their wings if they take enough hits before being destroyed.
