In their debut appearance, Lockjaws appear in most underwater levels. When [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] approach a Lockjaw, it clamps its jaws and then lunges at the lead [[Kong]] in an attempt to bite them. Lockjaws can only be defeated by [[Enguarde]] by stabbing them. The Lockjaws in the later levels often move faster than in earlier levels.

Lockjaws also appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Barrel Blast]]'' as rare enemies only found on [[DK Jungle Falls]] and [[DK Jungle Sunset]]. Here they attack players by jumping out of the water and attempt to bite them. There are also electrified variants of Lockjaws. Both of them can be defeated in one hit, though the electrified Lockjaw will also significantly slow down a player unless that player was invincible.
