Burrbert is an enemy that appears in Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World. They are only found in World 6-6, Feel Fuzzy, Get Clingy. Burrberts have spikes surrounding their orange bodies and can hurt Yoshi because of this if he touches one. They can be found stuck to the moving Velcro conveyor belts or walls in the level, some of which are generated from pipes.
Yoshi can hit a Burrbert with a yarn ball, which will prevent Yoshi from being damaged by it temporarily. Unlike most enemies, they cannot be destroyed by a yarn ball nor Yoshi himself.
NamingEdit
Their name comes from "burr", the spiked seeds that inspired Velcro, and the English name "Bert".
