Stinger

From Zelda Wiki.org

Stinger
Game(s)	Ocarina of Time
Habitat(s)	Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly Water Temple
Effective Weapons	Hookshot, Boomerang Fairy Slingshot

The Stinger is a manta ray-like monster in Ocarina of Time that inhabits aquatic environments, primarily in Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly and the Water Temple. Stingers, who generally travel in packs, scour below the soil of their domain keeping them from harm and allowing them to sense seismic disruptions nearby. When such a disruption is heard, the Stinger will launch itself in the air and float around its enemy.

Since the Stinger is so wary of its enemy, it usually stays a long range from its opponent, and thus can only be easily killed with items such as the Hookshot, Boomerang, and Fairy Slingshot. However, it is possible to kill stingers with a jump attack when they are in shallow water. Link must line up behind the stinger and perform a jump slash to take down the enemy. It will not work if the stinger flies at Link. When Link is hit by a Stinger, an electric shock is given to Link, making him fall back, and scream.
