Samus commonly encounters Kihunters in various parts on Zebes, being absent only in [[Tourian]] and [[Maridia]]. They will attack Samus by diving towards her then slashing, if Samus destroys the wings of a Kihunter it will spit acid at her.<ref name=Manual>{{Cite manual|These creatures are pirates from another galactic system who helped rebuild Zebes.

Kihunters appear again in ''[[Metroid: Other M]]''. They are one of the species studied and experimented on the [[Bottle Ship]]. Kihunters' wings can be [[Ice Beam|frozen]] or torn off in a [[Lethal Move]]. In some areas, Samus can see [[Zoro]]s turn to their pupal stage and then break out to adult Kihunters. It happens remarkably fast, possibly due to genetic manipulation. Some Zoros are also, at one point, vulnerable to all weapons except for [[Morph Ball Bomb]]s. | Kihunters appear again in ''[[Metroid: Other M]]''.

There are also mechanically enhanced Kihunters, the product of experimentation on the Bottle Ship. These creatures are more resilient, however like any other Kihunter can be defeated with one attack from the [[Screw Attack]]. | There are also mechanically enhanced Kihunters, the product of experimentation on the Bottle Ship.

The first Kihunters she encounters are wingless and will shoot acid at her, the Kihunters with wings attack Samus with their powerful stinger that inflicts a high amount of damage if Samus does not have the [[Gravity Suit]]. | ||
