Priscilla the Peckish in Yoshi's Island DS.
Sprite of Priscilla the Peckish

Priscilla the Peckish is an insect creature found on Yoshi's Island. She is the boss of World 3 in Yoshi's Island DS.

If the 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 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 Needlenoses.
