'''Mawpaws''' are creatures which look like kangaroos and goats. They have brown or blue fur (blue in the Xowar secret). The Teensies are using Mawpaws for transportation as seen in the intro.

==Hoodlums==
'''Mawpaws''' are a strange type of creature encountered several times throughout ''[[Rayman 3]]''. They loosely resemble a plesiosaur, except that they have hand-shaped heads, and they are capable of flight.
The Mawpaws are very handy for the [[Hoodlums]], their clothes are made of Mawpaw wool. As seen in the intro, the [[black lums]] are flying laps around the Mawpaw to steal their fur.


==Appearances==
One of them is seen for the first time emerging from a lake in the very first segment of [[the Fairy Council]] where [[Murfy]] has to carry [[Rayman]] to escape from the [[Hoodlum]]s. In [[the Bog of Murk]] some Mawpaws are seen flying aimlessly through the air at the beginning of the level. Later, in the dungeon beneath [[Razoff|Count Razoff]]'s mansion, another Mawpaw can be found. It seems to have been imprisoned there by [[Razoff]]. This Mawpaw helpfully picks up [[Rayman]] and places him back in the battle if [[Rayman]] falls down into the pits of the dungeon (much to the ire of the imprisoned [[Globox]], who would rather that his friend stay there with him).
The Mawpaw is a cut creature from Rayman 3. But they'd already made the model, so they decided to throw them in a secret room so that their work would't entirely go to waste.


* The Rayman 3 Intro video
In addition to frequenting the skies above the marshes, Mawpaws are also known to live in the ocean; if [[Rayman]] falls overboard the ship in the first phase of [[the Summit Beyond the Clouds]], a Mawpaw picks him out of the water and puts him back on board.
