'''Priscilla the Peckish''' is an insect creature found on [[Yoshi's Island (place)|Yoshi's Island]]. She is the boss of [[World 3 (YIDS)|World 3]] in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. | |||
If the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] jumps into or over the sand which she inhabits at the wrong time, Priscilla may eat him, causing him to lose all of his [[Yoshi Egg|eggs]]. Yoshi can jump from platform to platform in Priscilla's path to lure her out of her sand pit and throw an egg at her. Alternatively, a [[Glide Guy]] may come out and lure her; this second method, however, happens periodically and can therefore take quite some time. She also spits [[Needlenose]]s. | |||

==Trivia== | |||
*Priscilla's attack manners are probably based on the larva of a type of [[Earth|real world]] insect known as the [[wikipedia:Antlion|antlion]] (these larvae are also known as doodlebugs), who are quite well-known for digging pits in sand and devouring any insects that fall into them. | |||
*Priscilla is very similar to the [[Pokémon]] [[bulbapedia:Trapinch|Trapinch]], as both have large heads, powerful jaws, and tiny bodies with four tiny legs. | |||
