{{conjecture}}

An '''X2 Animal Token''' is a special variety of [[Animal Token]] from ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. It is an exceptionally large, golden token that comes in the shapes of each the game's four rideable [[Animal Buddy|Animal Buddies]] ([[Rambi the Rhinoceros|Rambi]], [[Expresso]], [[Enguarde]] or [[Winky]]). Touching an X2 Animal Token will double the amount of [[Mini Animal Token]]s the player has collected in a secret area.

Only four X2 Animal Tokens exist, with one for each of the aforemented Animal Buddies. The respective X2 Animal Token for each Animal Buddy is well hidden in the corresponding Animal Buddy's secret area, which can be reached whenever either [[Donkey Kong]] or [[Diddy Kong]] collect three of the same Animal Tokens.

Because an X2 Animal Token will instantly double the player's amount of Mini Animal Tokens, it is practical to touch the level's X2 Animal Token just before time runs out, when the player should have collected as many Mini Animal Tokens as possible beforehand. Knowing the locations of the the four X2 Animal Tokens is one thing, but planning a strategy to reach them with a lot of Mini Animal Tokens before the [[Time Limit]] expires is something else. When the Time Limit expires, the player's Mini Animal Tokens will be exchange for [[Extra Life|Extra Lives]], at the exchange rate of one life per one-hundred tokens, which makes taking advantage of the X2 Animal Token a big incentive.
