'''Bristles''' are [[List of enemies|enemies]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. These orange hedgehogs have spiky quills that injure [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] on contact. Bristles are encountered in waterfall levels and jungle levels mainly. A Bristles can be defeated from being rolled into from the front, because their quills harm the [[Kong]]s, much like [[Spiny (Donkey Kong Country 2)|Spinies]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. Unlike Spinies, Bristles are unaffected by a [[team up]] throw, also damaging the Kong in the process. Alternatively, a Bristles can be defeated either from a [[barrel]] or a [[Steel Keg]] being thrown at it, or from [[Squawks the Parrot|Squawks]] spitting a coconut at it. A unique type of Bristles appears in [[Konveyor Rope Klash]] of ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''; they curl up before tossing themselves at Dixie and Kiddy and can be defeated only from a barrel in this state. In [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]], a Bristles is categorized as part of the [[Terrorfirma Tuff Guys]].

In the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|remake]] of ''Donkey Kong Country 3'', curled up Bristles have a role in the [[Cranky's Dojo]] minigame, where the goal is for [[Cranky Kong|Cranky]] to deflect thirty of them as they bounce at him.
'''Bristles''' are orange hedgehog enemies appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. They have spiky quills that injure [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] when touched. As such, they are considered [[Spiny (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Spinies]] from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. According to [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]], Bristles are categorized under the "[[Terrorfirma Tuff Guys]]" enemy class.


==Profiles and statistics==
==Summary==
To directly defeat a Bristles, Dixie or Kiddy must roll into it from the front, otherwise the [[Kong]]s will get hurt from touching it. And unlike Spinies, Bristles are immune to [[team up]] throws, as performing the move injures the Kong thrown. Other ways to defeat a Bristles include throwing either a [[barrel]] or [[Steel Keg]] at it, or by having [[Squawks the Parrot|Squawks]] spit a coconut at it.
 
Bristles mostly appear in waterfall levels and jungle levels, and they appear in more levels in ''Donkey Kong Land III'' than in ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''.
 
In the level [[Konveyor Rope Klash]], some Bristles curl up and hurtle themselves toward the Kongs. They are more hazardous, as the Kongs cannot defeat them by themselves. They can either defeat these Bristles with a [[Barrel]] or attack them when they assume their usual form. The rolling Bristles do not appear in ''Donkey Kong Land III''. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, the rolling Bristles are featured in the [[Cranky's Dojo]] minigame, where [[Cranky Kong|Cranky]] must deflect 30 rolling Bristles as they appear from the left and right sides of the screen and bounce toward him. If Cranky is hit by a Bristles, he loses.
