'''Bopapodamuses''' are enemies that appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. They are tree-climbing hippopotamus-like species that hang on to poles. The appear exclusively in the [[Forest (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Forest]] world, where a total of fourteen are found across two levels. There are six of them in [[Tippin' Totems]] and eight of them in [[Springy Spores]].

During the levels, the [[Kong]]s must jump on the Bopapodamuses to get across large gaps. The Kongs can only jump on a Bopapodamus four times; after that, it falls into the [[Pit|abyss]], leaving the Kongs vulnerable to also falling down. If the Kongs do not jump directly on a Bopapodamus's head, it swats them down into the pit, causing them to lose a [[Extra life|life]].

==Trivia==
*Bopapodamuses were planned to reappear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'', but they never made it in the final game. According to [[List of extras in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze#Images|concept art]], they were supposed to float on water surfaces instead of being on poles.

-*Like with most enemies, Bopapodamuses award coins and eventually balloons if Donkey Kong successfully defeats a chain of them without landing. However, in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns HD]]'', this does not occur due to a glitch.<ref>https://youtu.be/GLujXuGd1GU</ref>
