The first group of metal sharks will swim up to the surface of the water (where you can breathe fire at them to no effect) to eat you if you jump into their pool before hitting the button to fill the second area with water. This is especially noticeable in the Reignited version because the glitch where they follow you up to the land is turned into an Ascended Glitch so that they will now briefly follow you a few feet out of the water before giving up and heading back down.


* On the subject of enemies that eat you, the Robotic Sharks from Aquaria Towers are this. They're large, meaning you can't charge them and their bite actually counts as a OneHitKill regardless of whether or not Sparx is present. The only way to destroy them is if you activate the [[{{Fireballs}} Superflame power-up]] in that level. If you don't, then any attempt to take them on will immediately result in Spyro sleeping with the fishes. And escaping isn't an option; they're hard-coded to chase you down if they see you, being capable of following you ''[[SuperPersistentPredator even if you jump out of the water]]''. Oh, and you have to deal with them to get the treasures they're guarding. [[SarcasmMode Have fun!]]

The fact they are in metal is not important because they are underwater anyway (Yeah there's the glitch but still).y

* The outro for Magma Cone. Four little fauns are dancing and partying near a pit of lava, when suddenly, one of the fauns shoots a rather mischievous look at the camera. Afterwards, he ''pushes one of his friends into the lava'' (seemingly to his death), then continues to dance and celebrate as if it never happened. The other two fauns don't even notice.

notice. Not to mention that the faun who falls in the lava lets out a faster and higher-pitched version of a certain scream, followed by a ''splat'' sound that seemed it came out of splatter movies.

** There was one challenge in that level where you have to save the cavemen from Lava Lizards before they eat them. If you're not fast enough to save the caveman the lava lizard will catch the caveman, toss him in the air, and catch him in his mouth and swallow him whole. The more you save the caveman the faster the lizards are it's scary because of how fast those lizards were they get faster and faster every time you save the caveman and it's becomes scary and frustrating at the same time. It's one scary challenge you'll never forget imagine if they try to eat Spyro!

* The plants from Misty Bog in the first game get their {{expy}} in the ravenous Killer Bushes in Fracture Hills. They act mostly the same, but without the fangs. On the other hand, they look just like all the other bushes, which aren't alive, [[ParanoiaFuel until Spyro approaches them]]. This way, their attacks are more startling, but not quite as scary. The Bee Trees do the same.

** In the ''Reignited Trilogy'', a subtle visual distinction was added to the Killer Bushes to distinguish them from normal ones. Killer Bushes have a few branches surrounding their exterior.
