Ukiwani

Ukiwani are crocodilian enemies in Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 and appear as members of the Brown Sugar Pirates. They wear inner tubes and lazily lie in wait in a lake. When Wario crosses the lake, Ukiwani leap up and snap at him.

Similar enemies known as Tobawani appear in Wario Land 4, which swim faster and have a longer leap.
