An '''End of Level Target''' is an item found in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. They are found at the end of the level, hence the name, and can sometimes give the [[Kong]]s extra bonuses. The target is a pulley mechanism, and if the Kongs jump hard enough on it, they will make a barrel knock the top, giving them a special item. These items include: an [[Extra Life Balloon]], [[Kong Letters|the letter G]], a [[Banana Coin]], some [[banana]]s, or even a [[DK Coin]].

An '''End of Level Target''',<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|date=1995|publisher=Nintendo of America|title=''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' instruction booklet|page={{file link|DKC2 Manual 16-17.jpg|17}}}}</ref><ref>{{cite|title=''Donkey Kong Land 2'' instruction booklet|page=14|date=1996|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> also known as an '''exit target''',<ref>{{cite|author=Miller, Kent and Paul Shinoda|title=''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' Player's Guide|page=19|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|date=1995}}</ref> is an object found at the end of every [[level]] (excluding boss fights) in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. An End of Level Target functions very similarly to a {{wp|High striker|strength tester}}: If [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] land on an End of Level Target from a high enough position, the attached lever causes the [[barrel]] to rise to the top of the pole, rewarding one of several roulette-style scrolling prizes, including a [[Red Balloon]], [[KONG Letters|the letter ''G'']], a [[Banana Coin]], a [[Banana Bunch]], a [[banana]], or sometimes even a [[DK Coin|Cranky's Video Game Hero Coin]]. The Video Game Hero Coin of [[Web Woods (Donkey Kong Country 2)|Web Woods]], in particular, flashes by faster than the other prizes. If Diddy collects a prize, he briefly brings out a boombox and starts rapping, whereas with Dixie, she briefly performs on an electric guitar. If no prize is won, a brief fanfare plays instead. Diddy's rap, Dixie's guitar, and the brief fanfare all vary based on the level's music, though not in the [[Game Boy Advance]] version.


In ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', the End of Level Target is a trampoline-like object, also called the '''Goal Target''',<ref>''Donkey Kong Land 2'' Nintendo 3DS [[Virtual Console]] electronic manual. Tab 9: "Progressing Through Stages".</ref> which does not yield a prize. When Diddy or Dixie jumps onto a Goal Target, it bounces them out of the level.
When [[Diddy Kong]] collects the prize in front of Dixie on the End of Level Target, he will start rapping with a stereo, whereas if [[Dixie Kong]] collects the prize in front, she will take out an electric guitar and play it.


The End of Level Targets were replaced with [[Level Flag]]s in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''.
In ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', they don't feature the pole and a barrel and only feature the target.
