==Appearances==
==''A Link to the Past''==
===A Link to the Past===
Though not officially named in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', Dactos appear as orange pterosaur-like enemies with fangs and a single horn on their head. They perch atop the trees in the [[Dark World]] until [[Link]] approaches, at which point they will persistently attempt to fly into him until they are defeated or Link moves into the next screen or uses the [[Pegasus Boots]] to run away far enough from them to make them disappear.

Dactos are rather dangerous enemies, as they are highly persistent and their attacks are capable of inflicting three full hearts of damage. They are also somewhat durable, requiring two strikes from the [[Master Sword]] to be defeated.
