'''Tail Boos''' are [[Boo]]s with [[Raccoon Mario|tail]]s granted by [[Super Leaf|Super Leaves]] that appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' and the Minion side modes of the ''[[Mario & Luigi (series)|Mario & Luigi]]'' series. Their tails are white and grey, unlike [[Tanooki Mario]] and other tailed enemies, who have brown and beige tails.

Tail Boos first appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' in the level [[World 4-4 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 4-4]]. They follow the player and when the player looks at one to stop it, it will perform a tail whip as it stops. Like regular Boos, they can only be defeated from invincibility granted from either a [[Super Star]] or an [[Invincibility Leaf]]. Certain Tail Boos drop either a Super Leaf or a [[Statue Leaf]] upon defeat.

They can only be defeated from invincibility granted from either a [[Super Star]] or a [[Invincibility Leaf]], just like normal Boos. Certain Tail Boos drop either a Super Leaf or a [[Statue Leaf]] upon defeat.
 
Although it only uses its tail to attack when it stops moving, its bio on the North American website for the game erroneously claims that they will swing their tail while pursuing the player.
