ABig & Little Boo,[1] also called aBoo Cluster[2][3] or aBoo family,[4] is a variant ofBoo inYoshi's Story. It consists of one regular-sized Boo followed byLittle Boos, all having blue mouths. Big & Little Boos mirror aYoshi's movements, approaching it when the Yoshi comes towards them. They can be defeated by being tricked into looking away, allowing the Yoshi to throweggs at the Little Boos in the same manner. Each group holds amelon. If the melon is collected, the Boos will not respawn if moved offscreen far enough. Big & Little Boos appear only in theJelly Pipe.
