Bazzas live in underwater holes which they constantly swim in and out of in a straight line. They can also use tree trunks and large broken branches as hideouts, in "Sunken Spruce". If [[Dixie Kong]] or [[Kiddy Kong]] swims too close to a Bazza, the fish will bite the [[Kong]]. These enemies can only be defeated by [[Enguarde the Swordfish]], so most of the time the Kongs will have to avoid them. As revealed in the Game Boy Advance remake, Bazzas can live in both soft and salted water.
