Yellow Snaggles
Template:Species-infobox Yellow Snaggleses[1], also referred to as Super SnagglesesTemplate:Refneeded or simply Snaggles[2], are shark enemies that appear in Donkey Kong Country Returns, Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D, and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. They are a sub-species of Snaggles, another shark enemy species. They are yellow with sharp teeth, and resemble tiger sharks.
Like regular Snaggles, they leap out of the water at regular intervals, but will make a quick additional leap right afterwards without any warning. They appear in the Beach world, and in some other levels, including Damp Dungeon. They can only be defeated by being struck with a barrel. If Super Snaggles make contact with the Kongs, they will lose a heart from his health meter. Super Snaggleses make dog noises when they jump out of the water, just like their relatives.
Super Snaggles operate differently in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, in that instead of jumping out of the water, they'll simply chase any Kong who's within their range. However, they can't attack the Kongs if they're not underwater.
Trivia
- The Prima guide for Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D erroneously refers to this enemy as "Jumping Nibbles."
