'''Hornoads''' are small creature native to [[SR388]]. Hornoads are only ever seen hopping on their two legs and not walking. Once they notice an intruder, Hornoads will attack them, but will quickly lose interest if they move away. They are a minimal threat enemy, causing low amounts of damage and easily destroyed. These creatures are mentioned by [[Old Bird]] to other [[Chozo]] while he is explaining the threat of the X parasites. He reveals that the "silly creature" can become quite hostile when mimicked by an X. | '''Hornoads''' are small creature native to [[SR388]].

In ''[[Metroid II: Return of Samus]]'', Hornoads can only hop to attack Samus. Their feet are shown to have front and back claws which are probably their form of offensive while hopping. They are found only in the earliest caverns of SR388 hopping fairly quickly. | In ''[[Metroid II: Return of Samus]]'', Hornoads can only hop to attack Samus.

In ''[[Metroid Fusion]]'', | In ''[[Metroid Fusion]]'', Hornoads never attack Samus, though their X-mimicked counterparts do. Hornoads are shown in some areas to hop out of nests, like in one of the rooms with heavy ventilation. This could imply that their species has a preference towards specific air makeup. Their X-mimicked counterparts appear significantly different from SR388's abundant Hornoads. Aside from color differences that appear in many other creatures, these Hornoads no longer have claws on their feet and instead have three large toes. The [[X Parasite|X]]-mimicked Hornoads display relatively large, sharp teeth. These Hornoads are also capable of spitting unknown fluid that will cause damage. As these Hornoads also jump significantly slower, it appears that the Hornoad species has traded in its legs' capabilities for sharp fangs coupled with corrosive saliva. On the B.S.L Station, they appear only on the [[Main Deck]] and [[Sector 1 (SRX)]]. | ||
