• Muggles, geocaching-speak for non-geocachers who are unaware of the game's existence. Muggles can add challenge to caches in crowded areas, since the cacher may accidentally reveal the location of the cache. A cache that has been discovered and damaged or removed by non-cachers is said to have been muggled. In a more general sense, it is a neutral term for people who are excluded from one's current activity and are hopefully absent. It is considered poor form to retrieve a geocache in the presence of Muggles since the caches often contain somewhat valuable items and their contents could be easily stolen by others if not careful. For example, a typical comment on Geocaching.com is "I found the cache site but I had to wait 10 minutes to retrieve it because muggles were around"
• Muggle-Wump monkeys is group of monkeys in Roald Dahl's children's book " The Twits " which in alliance with the Roly-Poly bird, are determined to give Mr and Mrs Twit a ghastly surprise
