'''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 Nintendo Switch [[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'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier. ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Game Guide. Page 12.</ref> are rare enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. They are bovine creatures resembling {{wp|African buffalo}}es and are only encountered in some levels of [[Bright Savannah]]. They wear a red bead necklace and sport a golden ring that pierces their snout.

Buffaloafers are initially found grazing on grass in one place. When they notice the [[Kong]]s, Buffaloafers try to attack them by ramming their large, crooked horns into them. The Kongs can simply jump over them to avoid getting rammed, but the enemies will change direction immediately. If the characters jump on top of a Buffaloafer, the enemy will throw them up in the air, causing them to lose control briefly but without inflicting damage.
 
When they are lured into a wall, Buffaloafers turn upside-down and reveal their vulnerable bellies, where the Kongs can apply three stomp attacks to defeat them. They can also be turned on their backs if the Kongs collide with a [[Roll Attack|roll attack]] into their ramming horns. [[Cranky Kong]] can perform three [[Cane Bounce]]s on a Buffaloafer's back to defeat it more directly. The player can also attract the creatures off a ledge, although they will reapper in their inital spot if the Kongs leave their area and return.
 
Buffaloafers are solitary and can be found in [[Baobab Bonanza]] and [[Rickety Rafters]], where they behave the way described above. In [[Frantic Fields]], a Buffaloafer is flown away by the savannah storm and crashes into a wooden bridge, breaking it right in front of the characters.
