Flipruses are a type of enemy found in New Super Mario Bros. U. They are pink walrus-like creatures with yellow goggles and blue-and-white striped tails. They create snowballs and launch them at the players. They appear in only one level: the secret level Fliprus Lake. They behave very similarly to Snow Spikes, but they launch their snowballs up much higher. Plus, their snowballs can be jumped on.
