| “ | Ah HA!! I have found my next victim!! | ” | — Bronto Burt (Kirby's Avalanche) |
The Bronto Burt, originally named Bront Burt,[1] is a generally reoccurring enemy that is quite common to the many stages and realms of many Kirby games. Although they appear in a wide range of Kirby games, their appearance and behavior have stayed relatively unchanged.
Appearance
Bronto Burts can be described as being small and round with two pairs semi-transparent, insect-like wings, tiny orange feet, large eyes with long eyebrows, and an emotionless mouth. In later appearances, they have blush marks similar to how Kirby has them. The Bronto Burts in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards differ slightly from their usual appearances, having one pair of wings, much thicker eyebrows, darker pupils, and no mouths.
Bronto Burts also share color variants, as seen in Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land
Its primary method of attack is to fly into Kirby. However, sometimes, it may ignore Kirby as it flies past him. They can fly in a wave-like line, bounce around the room, or home in at Kirby when he comes near them.
According to its Brawl trophy, it does not serve Dedede, and divebombs from time to time, only hurting Kirby because he is in the way.
Game Appearances
Kirby's Dream Land
File:KDLBrontBurt.png Bronto Burts make their first appearance in Kirby's Dream Land. In this game, they are a relatively common airborne enemy. Their attack patterns involve flying in the air, falling and looping, following Kirby, or jumping followed by flying straight. With all enemies in this game, they can be defeated in one hit or by getting inhaled. If they are defeated, they give Kirby 400 points. Twizzy enemies act in a similar manner as Bronto Burts.
Koozers replace Bronto Burts in the Extra Game.
Kirby's Adventure
File:BrontoBurt KA.pngFile:KNiD E BrontoBurt.png Bronto Burts reappear in Kirby's Adventure and its remake. They behave very similarly. Bronto Burts are normal enemies in this game. They are also relatively common.
Kirby's Avalanche
A Bronto Burt appears as Kirby's second rival in Kirby's Avalanche, after Waddle Dee in the main game. Bronto Burt can be fought only in the Easy mode of this game.
Kirby's Block Ball
Bronto Burts have appeared as common enemies in Kirby's Block Ball.
Kirby's Dream Land 2
File:KDL2BrontoBurt.png Bronto Burts make another appearance in Kirby's Dream Land 2. They behave in the same manner. They give Kirby 200 points when they are defeated.
Kirby Super Star
File:KSSBrontoBurt.pngFile:BrontoburtSSU.png
Bronto Burts appear again in Kirby Super Star and its remake as a common airborne enemy. They have low HP compared to most enemies in the game, which makes them easier to defeat. They give Kirby 300 points when they are defeated. They appear in all main game modes. In the remake, Bronto Burts appear as one of the various Kirby enemies in the sub-game Kirby on the Draw. In Kirby Card Swipe Bronto Burts are one of the various Kirby enemies that can appear on the card.
In the remake, Koozers replace Bronto Burts in Revenge of the King mode. They have twice as much HP as a Bronto Burt, but it is still relatively average compared to normal enemies.
Kirby's Dream Land 3
Bronto Burts reappear as common enemies in Kirby's Dream Land 3.
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
Bronto Burts make another appearance in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. In this game, it retains its usual attacks, but it can also charge at Kirby from the background of the stage. These enemies are among the most basic in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, appearing inside every realm except for Dark Star where only N-Zs exist. The Bronto Burts take one strike to be defeated.
Adeleine also draws Bronto Burts in her boss fight.
Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble
File:BrontoBurt TiltnTumble.png Bronto Burts appear in Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble as airborne enemies.
Kirby Air Ride
Bronto Burts appear as generic enemies that Kirby can defeat in Kirby Air Ride. When they spot Kirby, they tend to attempt to follow his movements while staring at him.
Kirby & the Amazing Mirror
Bronto Burts appear in Kirby & the Amazing Mirror in a similar style as from Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land. Nothing is changed between these two games.
Kirby: Canvas Curse
File:BrontoBurt KCC.png Bronto Burts reappear in Kirby: Canvas Curse as again a basic enemy. In this game, as with most enemies, Bronto Burts can be stunned for Kirby to defeat them.

Kirby's Epic Yarn
The Yarn form of a Bronto Burt appears many times in Kirby's Epic Yarn. In this game, in addition to standard Bronto Burts, some Bronto Burts carry bombs or even Spear Waddle Dees and drop these on Kirby or Prince Fluff.
Kirby Mass Attack
Bronto Burts are not as common in Kirby Mass Attack, but they do appear in two subgames: Strato Patrol EOS and Kirby Brawl Ball. In both cases, they appear as generic enemies that can be defeated.
Kirby's Return to Dream Land
Bronto Burts make a return in Kirby's Return to Dream Land. They function as the same as the previous games. However, they have a stronger version of themselves residing in Halcandra, similar to how Koozers replace Bronto Burts in the previous games.
Kirby's Dream Collection
While appearing in the ported games in Kirby's Dream Collection, Bronto Burts also appear as enemies in the bonus challenges the game offers.
