Zoomers are creatures native to Tallon IV. These creatures can be found throughout the Metroid series. In Metroid Prime, they are found around the Tallon Overworld. They are small creatures that are relatively insignificant, as they do not willfully attack Samus and just simply walk in a set path. Zoomers are related to the slightly larger, red Geemer.

Anchors itself to walls and other surfaces. Avoid contact with spikes. A basic nerve center located directly above the Zoomer's mandibles detects nutrients. Sharp spines protect it from casual predators, but the lack of a reinforced carapace makes the Zoomer vulnerable to any indirect attacks.^[3]

Trivia

In the original Metroid, if a block is destroyed while a Zoomer is on one, it will float and circle rapidly in one area.
Yellow Zoomers are the first enemies encountered in Metroid and, in turn, the entire Metroid series.
There is a similar enemy in Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion known as the Owtch.
