'''Snailicorns''' are large snail-like creatures that have the characteristics of a unicorn, such as a large horn, hence the name, which is a portmanteau of ''snail'' and ''unicorn''. They appear only in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' and are never seen outside of ice stages. They can be very dangerous, as a mere [[jump]] is not enough to defeat them, and [[fireballs]] are ineffective. However, as jumping on them sends them back a few feet, this tactic can be used to send them off of a cliff nearby, though they'll reappear if Mario leaves the area and comes back. Also, a full-speed [[Shell Mario]] or a stray [[shell]] will knock them out.

They always charge in a straight line, but change direction at edges, similar to Red [[Koopa Troopa]]s. They only appear in world 5-3 and world 5-B.
