Hiploop
For The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask on Nintendo 64 (2000).
Tatl says
Hiploops are hotheaded, so they'll charge if you look it in the eye. If it comes at you, assume the defensive position.
It's a Hiploop. Quickly dodge it if it charges at you. But can't you first do something about that mask it's wearing?

Drops
When the Hiploop is defeated, one of 16 slots is picked at random, so each slot is a 6.25% chance.
These places use this table: Stone Tower Temple, Woodfall
| Drop | Chance |
|---|---|
| Deku Nut | 12.5% |
 10 Arrows | 18.75% |
| Deku Stick | 12.5% |
 Recovery Heart | 12.5% |
| What Link is short of | 6.25% |
| Nothing | 37.5% |
Some of them use this table instead:
| Drop | Chance |
|---|---|
| Recovery Heart ×3 | 100% |
What Link is short of decides, checked in this order: a Fairy at 1 heart or less, Recovery Heart ×3 at 3 hearts or less, Recovery Heart ×1 at 5 hearts or less, a Magic Jar (large) with magic below half, 30 Arrows with fewer than 6 arrows, Bomb (5) with fewer than 6 bombs, and a Red Rupee with fewer than 11 Rupees. Otherwise nothing.
Arrows need the Hero's Bow and bombs need a Bomb Bag; magic needs the magic meter. Without them that slot drops nothing. A Recovery Heart at full health becomes a Green Rupee.
Where to find it
Official guide
An insect-type monster. Some wear a hard mask. If so, pull the mask off with the Hookshot, then attack.
Hiploops come in two flavors, with a mask and without. If you spot one with a metal mask, use your Hookshot to pull it off. Then defeat it with a couple of Sword strikes before it gears up to ram into you.
