A tunneling predator, the Burrower is a stuborn creature. although it is stupid and ignorrant it is mightly resilient and aggresive. It seems to spend more time underground then the surface. It surfaces simalir the way the beetle surfaces, it detects seismic activity and thats its cue to go to the surface to attack unsuspecting victims. Although it may be ignorent and stupid, its smart enough to retreat when a very large or extremly dangerous opponent rases its ugly mug.
A tunneling predator behaviorally similar to the [[Beetle]], the Burrower hunts by detecting seismic activity and surfacing to attack prey. Burrowers raise a visible trail as they tunnel underground, and will leap up only briefly to attack before burrowing again, making slower weapons such as the [[Ice Beam]] particularly ineffective.

Morphology[edit | edit source]

A tunneling predator behaviorally similar to the Beetle, the Burrower hunts by detecting seismic activity and surfacing to attack prey. Burrowers raise a visible trail as they tunnel underground, and will leap up only briefly to attack before burrowing again, making slower weapons such as the Ice Beam particularly ineffective. They are extremely aggressive and will assault anything that wanders through their territory, though they will hesitate to attack objects far larger than themselves.

Though they possess a set of mandibles, Burrowers attack Samus using only projectiles.

Logbook[edit | edit source]

Logbook entry from Metroid Prime: Burrower
First Location: Magmoor Caverns
Tunneling insect predator. The Burrower is similar to the Beetle, though it prefers to spend more time underground. It seeks seismic disturbances, then surfaces to attack. It has enough cunning to realize when something is too large for it to handle: beyond that, it is fairly ignorant. What it lacks in brains, it makes up for with aggression.[1]
