** Hoo Boy Squidward. Where to even begin? To start off, he’s easily the [[Main/TropeCodifier Trope Codifier]] with his iconic, long, droopy, bulbous nose, which has been referenced multiple times on this very page. It has been the subject of several gags on the show. Fans have even took notice as there is a common theory that Squidward’s nose is actually [[spoiler: his penis]]. [[https://youtu.be/ZaPheGdsEmA there’s even a song about it.]] Barnacle Boy's is just as big, leaving a gag for them calling each other [[HypocriticalHumor "big nose".]] In the Season Ten episode "Whirlybrains", Squidward pulls off some fabric on his nose to reveal his nose is ''even bigger''.

Chief Ruji of ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild Breath of the Wild]]'' has a relatively small and pretty one... mostly due to her being so young (she's Link's height while an adult is several feet taller).

* ''Literature/TheSnoutersFormAndLifeOfTheRhinogrades'': This {{Mockumentary}} takes this trope UpToEleven, with an entire group of shrew-like mammals living on a remote archipelago which have developed an organ known as the 'nasorium' derived from the nose, which can do almost every conceivable thing. There are species that stand on their nose, walk on their nose, grab things with their nose, sing with their nose, jump with their nose, dig with their nose, and eat things with their nose. Ironically, some snouters use their tear ducts to breathe instead of their nose.
