A Cactus in Super Mario Odyssey

Cactuses (or "cacti") are plants that appear throughout the Sand Kingdom in Super Mario Odyssey. If Mario runs into one of them, he will lose a piece of his health meter and a few of the thorns from the cactus will get stuck on his body. Mario can also destroy cactuses by running through them while riding Jaxi. Some smaller, round cactuses appear in the Sand Kingdom as well and they behave the same way. One cactus can be captured and moved in order to reveal a shining spot that Mario can Ground Pound to reveal a Power Moon.
