I would like to make the argument that the Giant Frox in the depths are TotK's stand-in for the Dodongos. They are giant reptile-creatures with a suck attack that you can throw bombs in to attack their weak points.

For anyone wondering those creatures in the middle of the thumbnail are called don dons and are not hostile. Tip: if you feed them luminous stones and wait by a campfire, they will excrete gems for you to collect. You can find them hidden in the faron region of Hyrule in Totk.

I'd consider them somewhat of a missing link. Visually, they definitely do call back to Dodongos, and them eating rocks somewhat is as well, but they're definitely mammals as far as we can tell, more bovine. They're a branch of Dodongo that have evolved into mammals and from there into horses, at least the ones in BotWs time, or have been crossbred with horses in the past

It’s so sad that king dodongo willingly jumped into the lava to rid himself of link forever. But I know what he went through. My mom always used to poke me in the throat when I would yawn and I would blow up and start rolling around. I’m glad we didn’t have a lava pit at home

Dodongo in 2023: I’m hungry

Dodongos are the coolest enemies in the Zelda games!

The Dodongos have been domesticated 😔

the dondon's in tears of the kingdom are actually relatives from long past of the HORSE of all things. so they definetly NOT dodongos. heck they dont even eat bombs.
