The '''Snippet''' is an enemy found mainly at [[Treasure Trove Cove]] in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. This over-sized [[wikipedia:Crab|crab]], like most enemies, will attack [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] when he comes into range, running at them sideways and snapping his claws menacingly. Defeating a Snippet is somewhat more complicated than with most other enemies: weaker attacks such as rolling or using eggs merely knocks the creature onto its back, from which it can right itself up if it is not hit with a subsequent attack. If the Snippet can be defeated while standing with a stronger attack such as the [[Beak Buster]] or the [[Wonderwing]], it yields two [[Honeycomb]]s rather than just one, making these creatures ample sources of easy energy provided the right strategy is used.

Although it is never mentioned in the enemy reel and apparently has no official name, a tougher, darker-colored Snippet can be found exclusively in the [[Sandcastle]] in [[Treasure Trove Cove]]. This mean old crab is much stronger than a regular Snippet, taking a whole five Blue Eggs just to kill; even the Beak Buster is not enough to take it down in one hit. It guards the [[Jiggy]] behind the metal gate until Banjo and Kazooie solve the puzzle of the [[Sandcastle|Sandcastle's]] tiled floor. Interestingly, like [[Gruntilda]], it speaks in rhyme.
