Baba Serpents are enemies from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. They are predacious plant-beings that inhabit certain areas of Hyrule. Closely related to Deku Babas, they are much more vicious and resilient, shutting their jaws on their prey even when removed from their roots. When detached from their roots Baba Serpents can crawl around and attack Link. If Link comes close enough, Baba Serpents will clamp their mouths around him tightly, providing no other option but to perform a Spin Attack. They will also occasionally hang down from ceilings. This means they must be hit with a long range weapon, such as the Hero's Bow or Gale Boomerang.

Baba Serpents have the ability to reattach to their roots, either due to Link getting too far away or waiting too long, provided their roots are on the ground and not on the ceiling.
