They are the primary enemy in Jungle Japes's [[Battle Arena Pad|Battle Arena stage]], Beaver Brawl. Like their two previous appearances, Gnawties can be defeated from any attack, including the new abilities introduced in the game. In an area surrounding the [[Cranky's Lab]] of Jungle Japes, Gnawties appear in increasingly large sizes and rival the size of Very Gnawty and Really Gnawty. Gnawties are the main focus of the [[Beaver Bother]] minigame, where a [[Klaptrap]] has to guide a certain number of them into a pit before time runs out. Gnawties also appear in [[Rambi Arena]], where [[Rambi the Rhino|Rambi]] has to defeat as many Gnawties as possible before time runs out; defeating a Gnawty would reward a point to Rambi. Sometimes a gold Gnawty appears in the arena, and defeating it rewards ten points. A gold Gnawty also appears in one segment of the secret ending, appearing behind [[Dogadon]] and scaring him. | Gnawties (referred to as '''Beavers''' by the [[Prima Games]] guide and the Banana Guide<ref>Barton, Jeff, Mario De Govia, and Donato Tica.
