{{quote|People say that [[Benny]] and I are like your regular peas in a pod! How funny ha-ha. What does it mean?|Björn|Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!}}
'''Björn''' is a member of the [[Brothers Bear]] who appears during the events of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' Björn operates one of the [[Björn's Chairlifts|chairlift]]s in [[Razor Ridge]], alongside his twin brother, [[Benny]]. "Björn" is a Swedish name meaning "bear". His and Benny's names come from two members of the Swedish pop group {{wp|ABBA}}, {{wp|Björn Ulvaeus}}, and {{wp|Benny Andersson}}.
'''Björn''' is a member of the [[Brothers Bear]] who appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' He has a twin brother named [[Benny]], and both bears operate one of the [[Björn's Chairlift|chairlift]]s in [[Razor Ridge]].<ref>{{cite|quote=These two identical twins run the ski lifts on the mountains.''|title=''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'' instruction booklet|page=20|date=1996|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> When first meeting [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]], Björn tells them that his chairlifts are non-operational and that he cannot repair them because he lent his [[No.6 wrench]] to [[Barter]]. When the [[Kong]]s recover the wrench, they can give it to Björn, allowing him to repair the chairlifts and for the Kongs to move up to the [[secret cave]], "Clifftop Cache". Like Björn's name was derived from a member of the Swedish pop group {{wp|ABBA}}, {{wp|Björn Ulvaeus}}, like Benny. Björn is also a Swedish and Icelandic term for a bear and a common male name in both languages.


In a preview showcasing the Brothers Bear, Björn and Benny are shown talking in unison with a German accent,<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) Issue #51|date=December 1996|page=17|language=en-gb}}</ref> though this does not happen in the game.
While Björn's chairlifts are not a part of the main path in Razor Ridge, they do connect to a cliff in the northwest section of the area, where a [[Banana Bird Cave]] lies. Unfortunately, Björn's chairlifts are broken by a [[Kremling]]<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'' Player's Guide, Nintendo, 1996, p. 5</ref>, and he is unable to fix them, for he lost his [[No. 6 Wrench]]. If [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] do some searching, they will learn that the No. 6 Wrench found its way into [[Barter]]'s hands. If the [[Kong]]s manage to haggle the wrench away from Barter, they can give it to Björn, who can then use it to repair his chairlifts, giving the Kongs free access to the Banana Bird Cave.
