We have already seen lots of cats in Super Mario costumes, so now it is time for Super Mario’s eternal rival Bowser to have a turn. He breathes fire, throws hammers, and uses all sorts of weapons in hopes of taking out Mario, but these ten animals still love him…

10 – Dog
I firmly believe that there is nothing in this world a pug hasn’t been dressed up as at least once! Even Bowser costumes get in on the act. Normally around Halloween time.

9 – Cat
I am sure some of these are supposed to be Bowser Jr costumes, but a cat would never want to be anything less than the leader of the Koopa Troopas.

8 – Dog
I think dogs are just too lovable to be a real Bowser. Now, cats, on the other hand, they are much more likely to try and take over any kingdom, even a mushroom one!

7 – Ferret
While not the best costume design in the world, there is not many Ferrets you are going to see in a Bowser costume, so badger here deserves to be included.

6 – Dog
Trust Bowser to be surrounded by his little minions. Good job there is a couple of power-ups nearby to defeat him.

5 – Cats
Is it just me or do dogs make these Bowser costumes look a lot better than cats? Make cats are more Princess Peach than the Evil Ruler.

4 – Dog
This dog even seems to have Bowser’s evil eyes! Fair play to whoever made this, it is a great costume and sure to win any dog Cosplay awards.

3 – Terrapin
While Terrapins are certainly angry and aggressive enough to be Bowser their size lets them down a little bit. But still a very good costume worthy of a nod of approval.

2 – Dog
It is his grumpy little face that tells you he has just lost Princess Peach again and will have to plot yet another kidnap attempt.

1 – Turtle
He might well look more like a fire-breathing dragon, but Bowser really is nothing more than a Turtle! So I thought it would be rather fitting to end on what he might look like in real life.
