Spinies are porcupine enemies found in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. They are invulnerable to rear attacks or a stomp because of their pointy quills, but a frontal attack (including teaming up and throwing Diddy or Dixie at them) will quickly dispose of them. Occasionally, they are seen with a Klampon in front, "bodyguarding" them, as Klampons are kind of the opposite of Spiny (invulnerable to front attacks, but vulnerable from top). Even though they are immune to the Kongs' jump attacks, Rambi and Rattly can jump off of Spinies harmlessly.

Spinies also appear in Donkey Kong Land 2. Their behavior in this game is identical to Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest.

Hedgehog enemies similar to Spinies, called Bristles appear in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III.
