'''Yuki''' is a [[Mid-Boss]] appearing in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 3]]''. It is a large, round mass of snow that thins towards the top, giving it a campanulate shape. Its only features are two round, black eyes located on its upper part, resembling the coal eyes of a snowman. When it is hurt, a small, round mouth becomes visible below them.

In battle, it possesses a triad of different attacks: It is able to perform three large jumps in a row, creating two small snowballs that can be inhaled and spat back whenever it lands, toss three copies of its head at [[Kirby]] or slide across the ground in a straight line, temporarily losing its head when it rams a wall. Any attack that results in the loss of Yuki's head briefly renders it invulnerable until it grows a new one. The heads remain frozen in place wherever they land for a few seconds before vanishing; during this period, they can be inhaled, making it possible to spit them back at the Mid-Boss.
