'''Triclops''' are small {{wp|hunter-gatherer}}s with three jaws.<ref name="logbook" /> These creatures can only be found in ''[[Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime's]]'' [[Magmoor Caverns]]. These creatures can withstand the high temperatures of Magmoor Caverns. They are non-aggressive creatures that only damage Samus if they run into her in either her normal form or Morph Ball mode, or if they mistake Samus for a rock<ref name="logbook" /> and draw her in to bite down on her. They expel Samus in an area designated to remove rocks and damage Samus as they release her. They can only be destroyed if Samus lays a Morph Ball Bomb and a Triclops draws one in, mistaking it for either food or an obstruction.

==Properties==
Triclops are non-aggressive creatures that only damage [[Samus Aran|Samus]] if they make contact with her, or if they mistake her for [[Morph Ball|rock or foodstuffs]] and draw her into their jaws for relocation. If she is caught, Samus will be carried and expelled into an area designated for either rock removal or food storage, and take damage. They can only be destroyed if Samus lays a [[Morph Ball Bomb]] in their path and a Triclops draws one in, mistaking it for either food or an obstruction.
 
In ''[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]]'', Samus encounters [[Luminoth]]-[[Luminoth Technology|made]] mechanoids designed to resemble Triclops, known as [[Mechlops]]. These were created after attempts to domesticate Triclops for use in [[Ing-Luminoth War|war]] failed.<ref>{{cite|The Luminoth tried to domesticate and train a number of Triclops for use in war, but failed. Undaunted, they created mechanical versions of the hardy creatures to use in battle. The few Mechlops that remain now serve other mechanoids, turning their potent jaws and earthmoving power against their former masters.|[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes Logbook]] "Mechlops"|[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]]}}</ref> This may indicate that the Luminoth transported specimens from Tallon IV for training, or found an indigenous group of Triclops elsewhere. Unused [[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes Text Dump|textual data]] indicates that Triclops and a [[Darkling]] variant called [[Dark Triclops]] were originally planned for use in ''Echoes''.
