Fluffin' Puffin
Template:Species-infobox Fluffin' Puffins are allies exclusive to Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World. They are similar to Huffin Puffins from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Story, except the adult is defeated when stepped on, and the chicks have green spots instead of light-blue pants with yellow polka dots and buttons, matching the adult's. Additionally, when thrown, they fly in a straight path similar to a Yarn Ball and leave a path of fluff behind them, which acts as a platform, instead of returning to Yoshi in a boomerang motion. Fluffin' Puffins only appear in the level Fluffin' Puffin Babysitting; collecting all of the Wonder Wools in the level unlocks Fluffin' Puffin Yoshi.
