Glunk is an enemy that appears in many main Kirby series games, first appearing in the series's first game, Kirby's Dream Land. It resembles a sea anemone with a green or yellow body and pink or red, sometimes vaguely hair-like tentacles on top of its head. Its face consists solely of two big, round eyes with black pupils.

Although Glunks usually reside in water, they can be found outside of it as well, making them one of the few amphibian enemies in the series. Their only strategy of self defense is regularly blowing bubble-like projectiles upwards or — in Kirby's Dream Land — towards one side. They do not yield any Copy Abilities in any of their appearances. Glunks are incapable of moving on their own, but if hit (and not defeated) they may be dislodged, where they will then fall down to the next available floor and resume duties there.

In Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, Kirby can hold a Glunk over his head after he's inhaled it, allowing him to attack enemies above using Glunk's shots.
