“	Plant-like creatures, Glunks are found on the ground or on the ceilings of caves. They each fire a pod at Kirby as he passes. Run by them to easily avoid the pods.”
	— Description • Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards Official Strategy Guide (Prima)

Glunk is a common enemy in the Kirby series that is, in appearance, based off of a sea anemone. It stays in place most of the time but sometimes fires projectiles or water into the air. Glunk gives no Copy Ability, because it is usually found underwater; however, Glunks may also occasionally be found out of water. They are commonly found in narrow underwater tunnels.

Glunk is one of the few enemies tolerable to water.

In Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, Glunk will fire rapid shots into the air when carried overhead, protecting Kirby from airborne foes.

In Kirby's Blowout Blast, Glunk cannot fire projectiles.
