The '''Mamuta''' ({{j|ミウリン|Miurin}}) is an [[enemy]] found in {{p1}}, {{p2}}, and {{p4}}. It is fairly large, seemingly rocky and has two small eyes with indents around each one.  Its body is notably asymmetrical with large, muscular arms that have strange markings around the wrists, and it is covered in tiny white and gray hairs. The hairs are more visible in ''Pikmin 4'', and upon closer inspection in this game, the markings are actually wristbands, which also have thicker lines in this installment. The single Mamuta in the first game is neutral, and just stands and watches when [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] walk by; if any harm comes to it, however, it becomes enraged and attacks. In ''Pikmin 2'', despite being initially so gentle that [[Unmarked Spectralids]] can land on them, Mamutas become aggressive when approached. In ''Pikmin 4'', they return to their behavior from ''Pikmin''. They are found relaxing and sometimes even purring, with [[White Spectralids|White]] and [[Yellow Spectralids]] fluttering about and resting on the Mamuta.

These creatures attack by pounding Pikmin into the ground. This doesn't kill them, but replants them and turns them into [[Maturity|flowered Pikmin]] by some unknown process. This can be used to one's advantage, though it can get very annoying when it comes to plucking the Pikmin if one is in a hurry. With the [[Pluckaphone]], however, a Mamuta can do more good than bad, as the planted Pikmin can simply be called out of the ground. Leaders, as opposed to Pikmin, do take damage from Mamuta attacks.

*In a [[Pikmin 2 prerelease information|prototype version of ''Pikmin 2'']], the Mamuta was meant to have a recipe, but it was scrapped and replaced to "inedible."
*In ''Pikmin'', the Mamuta appears to be resistant to [[bomb rock]]s, taking minuscule damage when struck.

*The Burrowing Snagret's recipe in the Japanese version of Louie's notes is strikingly similar to that of the Mamuta's American notes, stating it's "like grilled chicken". Because of this, the Mamuta's recipe is very different in the Japanese Version, instead saying to be quick about boiling it as it spoils quickly, but to be kept for 2-3 days when boiling.
