'''Buffaloafers'''<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|author=von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier|location=Roseville|title=''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' PRIMA Official Game Guide|page=12|date=February 21, 2014|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|isbn=978-0-804-16252-4}}</ref> are [[List of enemies|enemies]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]]. These {{wp|African buffalo}}es appear in some [[level]]s of the [[Bright Savannah]] only, such as [[Baobab Bonanza]] and [[Rickety Rafters]]. They wear a red bead necklace and sport a golden nose ring. A Buffaloafer is found grazing on grass at first, but when it notices the [[Kong]]s, it begins to chase them around while attempting to ram their horns into them. A Buffaloafer tosses the Kongs into the air if they are on top of it, though this does not damage them. If the Kongs are hit by a Buffaloafer, they lose a heart from their health meter. Buffaloafers can be lured into a wall or [[Roll Attack|rolled]] into their ramming horns to turn them temporarily upside-down, leaving it vulnerable to being stomped three times, defeating it. [[Cranky Kong]] can defeat a Buffaloafer by performing three [[Cane Bounce]]s off its back. Buffaloafers can be lured off a ledge, causing them to fall into a pit, but unlike the other defeat methods, Buffaloafers respawn in their initial spot if the Kongs leave their area and return. In [[Frantic Fields]], a Buffaloafer is flown away by the savannah storm and crashes into a wooden bridge, breaking it before the characters proceed to walk on it.
'''Buffaloafers'''{{refneeded}} are rare creatures resembling [[wiktionary:African buffalo|African buffaloes]]. Their role is that of enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'', and are only encountered in some levels of [[Bright Savannah]]. A Buffaloafer wears a red bead necklace and sports a golden ring that pierces its snout.

A Buffaloafer's temper is similar to that of a bull. After spotting the [[Kong]]s, Buffaloafers try to attack them by ramming their large, crooked horns into the Kongs. Before that, they can be seen ruminating on patches of ground that host tall grass. Their anger is so unrestrained, that they can even crash into a wall in their pursue of the Kongs. Upon hitting the wall, Buffaloafers turn upside-down, leaving their bellies discovered and ready to get stomped on three times, which grants defeat for the animal. An instant defeat can be obtained if the player lures the creature off a ledge.
 
Nevertheless, Buffaloafers are massive and make use of a great strength. They can throw the Kongs up in the air if the latter try to land on their backs, and can cause damage with their enormous horns. On the other hand, [[Cranky Kong|Cranky]] can perform a [[Cane Bounce]] on the buffaloes' backs and beat them in three hits.
 
Buffaloafers are solitary in the game and can be found in [[Baobab Bonanza]], as well as [[Rickety Rafters]], where they behave the way described above. In [[Frantic Fields]], a Buffaloafer is flown away by the savannah storm and crashed into a wooden bridge, breaking it right in front of the heroes.
