In Pikmin 2, a Burrowing Snagret is the boss of [[White Flower Garden]], found on [[sublevel]] 5 - this one contains the [[Five-man Napsack]] and many are encountered throughout [[Snagret Hole]]; one is even guarding the entrance in [[Awakening Wood]]. Another is on sublevel 4 of [[Hole of Heroes]], and yet another guards the [[Pink Menace]] in the [[Valley of Repose]]. Burrowing Snagrets are the most common boss-class enemies in Pikmin 2, having eight different in-game occurrences outside of [[Challenge Mode (Pikmin 2)|Challenge Mode]]. | ||

Attack when this happens and run away when it does not, and you should kill the Burrowing Snagret without losing any Pikmin. With quick, accurate throwing, however, this is not necessary to secure a deathless battle: throw many Pikmin at its head as soon as possible and the Snagret should die before managing to swallow any of the Pikmin it may have snatched up from the ground. | ||
