Beta elements
In an old Scribes page on the Rareware website, there was mention of there once being a giraffe Animal Buddy planned to appear in Donkey Kong Country; this Giraffe character was dropped for unknown reasons, though one of his mentioned abilities was that he would allow Donkey Kong to crawl up his neck and reach high items and secrets.
It is debated whether or not the plans for this giraffe buddy were actually real though, as Rare could have simply been making a joke at the expense of fan who had made a rather odd request for a giraffe to appear in an upcoming Donkey Kong game.
