| − | + | Dodongos start their lives as small, armless, legless creatures. They burrow underground and pop out to attack any foreigners. They eventually grow arms and legs to become fearsome beasts of varying sizes. A Dodongo's greatest defense is its thick skin, which can repel nearly any attack (although some Dodongos can be harmed by attacking their tails). The best strategy to use against these creatures is an internal attack- by tossing Bombs into their mouths. That is the method Link has used to extinguish many a Dodongo. | |
