'''Frogoons''' are green [[frog]] enemies that appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and | '''Frogoons''' are green [[frog]] enemies that appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. Their name is a combination of "frog" and "goon". Frogoons repeatedly jump up and down in one place. They can inflate their body while in midair to hover up slightly higher. [[Donkey Kong]] can easily subdue Frogoons by [[jump]]ing on top of them, causing them to deflate and blow away offscreen. Frogoons often appear together in groups.

Here, they do not inflate at all, and only jump across the road, thus acting like Hopgoons.
