Bryyo Thorn Jungle is a location westward on Bryyo, and, as the name implies, it is an overgrown jungle composed of the large thorn plants of Bryyo. Fuel Gel also appears here in certain sections. The Space Pirates set up a base in this region, but they abandon it after an attack by Samus Aran during Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.
Features[]
A Tiamat turret in Bryyo Thorn.
The entire area of the Bryyo Thorn Jungle is covered with large, prickly fungi, which is the most abundant form of large plant life. A massive Space Pirate base is built onto the jungle and is guarded primarily by ground troops and Aerotroopers. The Space Pirate base is built into corridors and cliffs around the jungle, and there are entire areas stripped of fungi and turned into military camps. The jungle itself is home to the Bryyo Leviathan seed which has manifested itself deep into the planet; the Phazon spreading from it is visible on many surfaces.
Two of the most notable features of the jungle are two Anti-Aircraft Cannons attacking any ship which attempts to destroy the shield, making it near to impossible to destroy it. Samus eventually destroys both cannons amidst a Space Pirate battle and manages to venture into the Seed. After Samus destroys the generator and defeats the Pirate forces on the way back to her Gunship, the Pirate base is abandoned and no Pirates appear there for the rest of the game.
Life[]
Samus battles a Korakk beast in the Jousting Field.
The Jungle is home to Pirate Troopers, Aerotroopers and Pirate Militia. A possible native example to the Jungle is the Korakk, which is ridden by the Pirate Hussar. There are also robots that were introduced by the Pirates in order to defend the base. Native bees fly above the jungle; these are also visible above the Cliffside Airdock landing site.
