Slugarangs are creatures that appear in Yoshi and the Mysterious Book. Yoshi can gobble a Slugarang to place the creature in his mouth. Then, Yoshi can spit them out to throw them like a boomerang. In flight, Slugarangs will destroy any grass that they come into contact with. If Yoshi jumps over a Slugarang, it will gain momentum and be able to destroy more types of objects.
Slugarangs can become hardened by eating jewels. Doing so allows them to travel through ground. Slugarang fossils can be broken to reveal smaller Slugarangs.
