===Red Blurp===
{{disambig}}
'''Red Blurps'''<ref name=Big/>, also referred to as simply '''Blurps'''<ref name=Big/>, are giant versions of the smaller fish of the same color native to the Jungle River of ''[[Yoshi's Island (place)|Yoshi's Island]]''. Red Blurps will eat anything near the river, so the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] must be careful when in their vicinity. Red Blurps act a lot like [[Boss Bass]], but are larger and more aggressive.
 
Red Blurps appear only in Stage 4-2: [[Jungle Puddle]]. They can jump very high out of the water, and have excellent aim. If a Yoshi falls into the water, it is difficult to get out in one piece.
 
==={{conjecturaltext|Blue Blurp}}===
[[File:YS Sprite Big Slurp.png|thumb|left]]
'''{{conjecturaltext|Blue Blurps}}''' are a sub-species of Red Blurps that spit water at anything above the waterline. However, once their prey is in the water, they act like Red Blurps. They are rarer than the Red Blurp, but all the same appear only where the normal variety do (namely, Jungle Puddle).
 
Much like [[Spray Fish]] from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', {{conjecturaltext|Blue Blurps}} shoot out a wall of water that's difficult to pass. These can be very annoying since their water spray follows Yoshi and can knock him into the water.

*A Blurp makes a cameo in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'', jumping over the racers during the awards ceremony and making the trophy appear. It also appears in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', doing almost the same thing but it flies and never touches the ground, but it doesn't jump over. It flies down and makes the trophy appear, then flies off.
*In ''[[Mario Golf (Nintendo 64)|Mario Golf]]'' for the [[Nintendo 64]], either a [[Boss Bass]] or Blurp will eat the ball if it lands in the water.
