Ssslumber

"Thought you steal Ssslumber's gold while he slept did you? Well, to be honest... But I heard you coming, clumsy bear. Oh..." ~ Ssslumber the Snake

Ssslumber is an enormous snake with a keen sense of hearing found in Mayahem Temple. He has a long tongue and thin, sharp fangs. He guards a Jiggy on top of the Code Room building and is surrounded by a mat of loose twigs which will snap underfoot, alerting the snake to any would-be thieves. Only by climbing up onto a small twig-less square and then tiptoeing by pushing the Control Stick very lightly can Banjo and Kazooie sneak up on Ssslumber and grab the Jiggy while he sleeps.

Trivia

 * Interestingly, after you have collected his Jiggy, Ssslumber will not wake up again, regardless of how much noise you make on the branches or even if you try to attack him.
