This is an enemy found in [[Pikmin: New World]]. It is first seen in the [[Hall of Gales]] where it is fairly commonly seen. Like all species of Wogpole it is the larval stage of a member of the amphituber family, in this case the Tan Wollywog. However, it is not found in the water and actually lives on the land at all times of its life cycle. They are relatively harmless and small. They will randomly appear out of the sand on the wide beach in the Hall of Gales. They can be easily killed but do not grant very many pikmin seeds at all. Once they surface the will flop around quite a bit before settling down once again directly before they burrow down into the ground once more. They are just one of the small enemies that Greater Scarpanids will swoop down and attept to grab and eat. Instead, the player can use this oppurtunity to kill this annoying pest when it swoops down for the kill. Landy Wogpoles are often killed by the many fiery blowhogs that roam about the beach upon emergence. They can also be killed in one of their stampedes. Because they are not underwater they cannot flee from the pikmin group and can only flop about until they burrow back underground. They have very different appearances than normal wogpoles. Their body colouration is a sandy beige and they have rounder bodies and longer tails. They also have small, black eyes and a large, gaping mouth. They also have the tiny beginings of limbs near their tail. The squeaking noises they make will alert any nearby Fiery Blowhogs to your presence, making them very dangerous if near the blowhog herd. Tan Wollywogs spend most of their time either on the shoreline or out in the middle of the water, so they don't protect them like the other Wollywogs do.

The Landy Wogpole is an amphituber appearing in Pikmin: New World. It is first seen in the Hall of Gales where it is fairly commonly seen. Its body coloration is light tan and it has a rounder body and longer tail than the ordinary Wogpole. They also have small, black eyes and a large, gaping mouth. They also have the tiny beginnings of limbs near their tails. Like other Wogpoles, the Landy Wogpole is the larval stage of a member of the amphituber family: in this case, the Tan Wollywog. However, it is not found in water and instead lives on land at all times of its life cycle. They are relatively harmless and small. They will randomly appear out of the sand on the wide beach in the Hall of Gales. They can be easily killed but do not grant very many Pikmin seeds. Once they surface they will flop around quite a bit before settling down once again directly before they burrow down into the ground once more. They are just one of the small enemies that Greater Scarpanids will swoop down and attempt to grab and eat. Landy Wogpoles are often killed upon emergence by the many Fiery Blowhogs that roam about the beach. Landy Wogpoles can also be killed in one of their stampedes. Because they do not live underwater, Landy Wollywogs cannot flee from Pikmin and can only flop about until they burrow back underground. The squeaking noises they emit will alert any nearby Fiery Blowhogs to the presence of Pikmin and leaders presence, making them very dangerous if near the blowhog herd. Tan Wollywogs spend most of their time either on the shoreline or out in the middle of the water, so they don't actively protect their young as the other amphitubers do.
