—Zubba, Banjo-Kazooie

The Zubbas are a species of hornet-like insects that appear in the Banjo-Kazooie series.

Banjo-Kazooie[edit]

In Banjo-Kazooie, Zubbas can be found in their nest in Click Clock Wood. When visiting them as Bee Banjo, they explain they are guarding a Jiggy for Gruntilda and were warned of a Honey Bear nearby that would try to steal the jigsaw piece. During Spring, Banjo can only enter the nest while transformed into a bee, not being able to obtain the Jiggy that way. During Summer, the bear and bird can enter their nest and steal the Jiggy, having to defeat the Zubbas first. During Autumn, their home is completely empty, with only one Zubba remaining to tell the duo that they all moved out. During Winter, they are completely absent and their hive is mostly destroyed.

Banjo-Tooie[edit]

In Banjo-Tooie, Zubbas can be found in Cloud Cuckooland and explain they obtained a new hive, after moving out in the last game. They serve as enemies, attacking the duo if they get near one. They also host a mini-game that is only accessible as Bee Banjo, where various different-colored Zubbas fly around and are required to be shot in order to win points. Blue Zubbas are worth 3 points, Green Zubbas are worth two points and Red Zubbas are worth one point.
