'''Belcha''', or '''Belcher''',<ref>{{cite|date=November 1996|author=Upchurch, Dave, et al.|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) Issue #50|page=84|publisher=EMAP|language=en-gb}}</ref> is a giant animate [[barrel]] and the first boss of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' Belcha has a large set of wooden teeth and large, red veins in its eyes. Belcha is one of the only two bosses who do not reappear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'', the other one being [[Squirt (boss)|Squirt]]. Belcha is fought at the end of [[Lake Orangatanga]], in [[Belcha's Barn]], where it is shown that Belcha's height nearly goes from the floor to ceiling, thus preventing the Kongs from passing it. Belcha's repeated attack pattern consists of spitting out a [[barrel]] at [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]], and then jumping forward, chattering its teeth a couple of times. Belcha slowly pushes the Kongs toward a pit on the left. It can be attacked if the [[Kong]]s reveal a yellow [[Knik-Knak]] from the barrel and throw it into Belcha's opened mouth. After eating the Knik-Knak, Belcha burps (hence the name), propelling itself backward. Eventually, Belcha falls into a pit on the other end, therefore being defeated. Lastly, like other bosses in the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|remake]] only, [[Cranky Kong]] shows up to make a remark about Belcha.<ref>{{cite|author=[[Cranky Kong]]|format=[[Game Boy Advance]]|location=[[Belcha's Barn]]|date=2005|title=''[[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Donkey Kong Country 3]]''|publisher=[[Nintendo]]|quote=Well done, young [[Kong]]s.

'''Belcha''' is a giant animate [[barrel]] and the first boss of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. He appears at the end of [[Lake Orangatanga]] in the boss level, [[Belcha's Barn]]. Belcha has a large set of wooden teeth and large, red veins in its eyes.  


One of the [[secret cave]]s is named "Belcha's Burrow". Despite having Belcha's name, this secret cave is located a considerable distance away from Lake Orangatanga and can only be accessed by the [[Gyrocopter]] very late in the game.
Belcha is one of the only two bosses to not reappear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'', the other one being [[Squirt (boss)|Squirt]].
 
==Description==
[[File:Belcha DKC3 battle.png|thumb|left|The boss fight against Belcha]]
In Belcha's Barn, Belcha's height nearly goes from the floor to ceiling, thus preventing the Kongs from passing him. His attack pattern is spitting out a [[barrel]] at [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]], and then jumping forward, chattering its teeth a couple of times, and then spits out another barrel. Every barrel that Belcha spits out has a yellow [[Knik-Knak]], and the lead [[Kong]] can attack Belcha by throwing it into its mouth. This causes Belcha to burp, propelling himself backward. By doing this a number of times (minimum being two Knik-Knaks if the Kongs are quick enough), the Kongs can send Belcha into a pit on the other end, thus defeating him. As Belcha jumps forward, he slowly pushes the Kongs toward a pit on the left.
 
In the [[Game Boy Advance]] port, [[Cranky Kong]] visits the Kongs after they defeat Belcha, whom he says would make good firewood.
 
One of the [[Banana Bird Cave]]s is named "Belcha's Burrow". Despite having Belcha's name, this Banana Bird Cave is located a considerable distance away from Lake Orangatanga and can only be accessed by the [[Gyrocopter]] very late in the game.

*The fight against Belcha is similar to the boss fight against [[Sluggy the Unshaven]] in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', in that if the boss is not defeated in time, the two protagonists are shoved off the edge.
