'''Chain Chomps''' (occasionally called simply '''Chomps''', alternatively formatted as '''Chain-Chomps''', and alternatively called '''Chain Chompers''' early on) are common enemies in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise. Chain Chomps were not initially conceived for the ''Super Mario'' franchise, but a developer came across old concept art and decided to implement them in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Chain Chomps bear a resemblance to a ball and chain and are typified by their large, tooth-filled maws and incessant biting. [[Shigeru Miyamoto]]'s inspiration for the Chain Chomps was from a childhood experience: a dog once ran up to him and tried to bite him, but the dog's chain held it back. As a result, Chain Chomps also possess canine qualities, such as barking, and are commonly used as guard dogs throughout the ''Super Mario'' franchise. Many Chain Chomps have been part of the [[Koopa Troop]], though a couple of them have been shown to be independent. Despite their English name, not all Chain Chomps have chains, or even chomp; many later depictions of chainless Chain Chomps have them rolling around like [[boulder]]s. {{more|Chain Chomp}}
