Template:Species-infobox Dan Spiders[1] are a species of spider-like creatures in Donkey Kong Jungle Beat. They are orange and black in color, with eight legs and three eyes. They only walk on two of the legs, however, which are much larger than the rest and covered in spikes.
After their cutscene plays, the background music will change to a piano solo. Dan Spiders are defeated by punching their center eye twenty times. Once defeated, a Dan Spider will explode, leaving eight bananas behind in its wake. Despite being enemies, they technically do not attack, like some others in the game, though they can damage Donkey Kong if he runs into their spiky legs.
Their first appearance is in the Lemon Kingdom's level Cactus Mine. Here, it appears near the end of the level. They appear a second time near the end of Battle for Storm Hill. However, here it has blue Ninjapes throwing down ninja stars between its legs, at DK, and the background music changes to dramatic violins. The spider's movements are also faster. The third and final time they appear is in Star Fruit Kingdom's level Asteroid Belt. Here, they appear on an ice planet, with several small, round ice enemies.
