“	“Eeek! Morths! Fan them away with the deku leaf before they can stick to you! If they stick to you, use your rolling attack to shake them loose.”
	— Tingle

Morths are often spawned in groups and their instincts work well together, almost moving as an individual creature would. These statistics could represent anywhere from a few to a few dozen morths all acting as one.
     Environment: Forest, Ruins
