They appear in some vine levels of the [[Forest (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Forest]] only, and Ape-Eating Plants are first encountered in the level [[Vine Valley (level)|Vine Valley]]. These carnivorous plants are a blue, medium-sized variant of [[Chomp (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Chomps]] with a tongue in the shape of a vine. Ape-Eating Plants always appear on the ceiling where they hide behind some leaves while sticking their tongue down. When the [[Kong]]s grab its tongue, the plant slowly pulls the tongue back to its mouth, attempting to eat the Kongs. Its tongue is necessary for progressing higher into the level, and the Kongs must quickly get off its tongue to avoid being eaten. If it does, although a prompt does not appear to indicate this like with [[green Chomp]]s, the player is able to force the Kongs out by shaking the controller (pressing {{button|3ds|x}} or {{button|3ds|y}} repeatedly in the port). If successful, the Kongs escape unharmed; otherwise, after a period of time, the plant spits them out and they lose a heart. Ape-Eating Plants cannot be defeated by any attack.
'''Vine Chomps'''{{ref needed}} are carnivorous plant enemies that appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]''. They are blue, medium-sized variant of [[Chomp (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Chomps]] with a tongue in the shape of a vine. Vine Chomps only appear in some vine levels of the [[Forest (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Forest]] world, and their first level appearance is [[Vine Valley (level)|Vine Valley]].

Vine Chomps always appear on the ceiling where they hide behind some leaves while sticking their tongue down. When the [[Kong]]s grab its tongue, the Vine Chomp slowly pulls the tongue back to its mouth, attempting to eat the Kongs. Its tongue is necessary for progressing higher into the level, and the Kongs must quickly get off its tongue to avoid being eaten. If it does, the player is able to force the Kongs out like with [[Shroom Chomp]]s (The game doesn't let you know about it though); after a period of time if you do not free the Kongs, it spits them out, causing them to lose a heart. Vine Chomps cannot be defeated by any attack.
