Bargosaurus

Bargasaurus is a spiky-tailed enemy found in Mayahem Temple and Terrydactyland whose design is drawn heavily from stegosaurs, an infraorder of herbivorous dinosaurs which contains the famous stegosaurus. The origin of the Bargasaurus' name is obvious: when it sees Banjo, it chases him and barges him with its heavy body. This baddie is relatively weak and its large body presents an easy target, but it's quick on its feet and can often unexpectedly come at the player from behind.

While it is still damaging if touched, the Bargasaurus will not attack Baby T-rex Banjo. In fact, a Bargasaurus will teach Banjo how to roar after criticizing his apparent meekness. However, when faced with the adult version of the bear-turned-dinosaur, the Bargasaurus knows when to run, much unlike the unfortunately dim-witted Soarasaurus.
