− | A Deku Baba's body usually consists of a stalk with a head attached that has a set of sharp teeth. They remain docile until potential prey draws near, at which point they will reach out to attack by snapping their jaws. Despite this danger, they can be defeated through basic methods. In their initial appearances, Deku Scrubs would leave different items depending on how they were defeated. If the Deku Baba's stalk is erect when it is slain, the stalk will harden and remain behind as a [[Deku Stick]]. Otherwise, it will only leave behind [[Deku Nuts]], which are located at the bud of the plant. In ''Twilight Princess'', they instead only leave behind [[Pumpkin Seeds | + | A Deku Baba's body usually consists of a stalk with a head attached that has a set of sharp teeth.

Deku Babas are versatile creatures and have developed into several different forms across the regions of [[Hyrule]], [[Termina]] and [[New Hyrule]]. Their primary habitats are forests, swamps and underground grottos. They originally appeared in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' as basic enemies found in the [[Kokiri Forest]] and various other areas, and they also had a widespread presence in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]''. A variation of the Deku Baba called the Fire Baba also appeared in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'' and is the only known Deku Baba species of New Hyrule. | Deku Babas are versatile creatures and have developed into several different forms across the regions of [[Hyrule]], [[Termina]] and [[New Hyrule]].

*'''Fire Baba''' - This Deku Baba-like creature emerges from its bulb to shoot fireballs at enemies, and they will also try to bite enemies if they draw near. They can survive without their stems until their heads are destroyed. It appears in ''Spirit Tracks''. | *'''Fire Baba''' - This Deku Baba-like creature emerges from its bulb to shoot fireballs at enemies, and they will also try to bite enemies if they draw near.

*'''Mini Baba''' - This is a short version of the Deku Baba without a visible stem. Its head protrudes upwards from close to the ground. It only attacks when an enemy is near and is defeated easily. They appear only in ''Majora's Mask'', primarily at the Southern Swamp as well as in underground grottos. | *'''Mini Baba''' - This is a short version of the Deku Baba without a visible stem.

*'''Shadow Baba'''/'''Shadow Baba Serpent''' - These are the versions of the Deku Babas and Baba Serpents that are found within the [[Twilight Realm|Twilight]].

Additionally, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' features a nearly identical species known as the [[Boko Baba]]. It is uncertain exactly how closely the two species are intended to be related, although it is possible that Deku Babas developed into Boko Babas in the centuries following Hyrule's flooding. | Additionally, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' features a nearly identical species known as the [[Boko Baba]].

*The word "Deku" is used in the name of several creatures and items in the ''Zelda'' series, and the name primarily seems to be for things related to the forest (possibly due to the [[Deku Tree]]). In reality, the word "deku" is a Japanese word meaning "wooden doll", which most closely matches the description of the [[Deku Scrub]]. | *The word "Deku" is used in the name of several creatures and items in the ''Zelda'' series, and the name primarily seems to be for things related to the forest (possibly due to the [[Deku Tree]]).
