'''Dino Dino Jungle''' is the second race course of the [[Special Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''. The course is located in a leafy prehistoric jungle with canyons, a lake, and many [[dinosaur]]s inhabiting the course. Obstacles in the course are [[Noshi]], a large {{wp|sauropod}} in the middle of a section of the track, and geysers that leap any vehicle running over one when active. The course shares its music with [[GCN DK Mountain|DK Mountain]], part of which is an arrangement of the ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. (game)|Donkey Kong Jr.]]'' stage music. Internally, it is listed as [[Diddy Kong]]'s course, possibly as a nod to the similar [[Dino Domain]] in ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]''.

Dino Dino Jungle reappears in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as the second race of the [[Lightning Cup]], and in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' starting with the [[New York Tour]]. It is the only course from ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''{{'}}s Special Cup to reappear in other games as a [[classic course]].

Dino Dino Jungle makes its classic course debut in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' as the second course of the [[Lightning Cup]]. The tree logs, geyser holes, and the jumps can now be used to perform a trick to gain a small boost. All of the branches of the bridge now contain Item Boxes, and have been slightly widened. Inside the cavern, the mushroom-only shortcut now contains a [[Glide Ramp]], though its width is now shorter so it is easier to fall off if the player is not careful enough when using mushrooms. After the cavern, there is a ramp also containing a Glide Ramp, and the head and neck of the Nossie can block the path of flight. The dinosaur also no longer spins the player out if they run into the head or legs. DK Mountain in the background is now replaced with a regular plain volcano, and the Nossies found in the river have been removed completely. Ramps were added to the ending section, which was also widened and reshaped compared to the original. Also, the course map has been rotated 90 degrees clockwise. In addition, players can now use a shortcut near the end of the track to glide over the fences to skip the last turn and the classic ''Mario Kart'' logo on the starting banner was changed to a generic one.

Dino Dino Jungle is featured in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' since the first tour, the [[New York Tour]]. The main version and the general layout of the course is based on the ''Mario Kart 7'' version of the track, without the [[Dash Panel]]s on the far right bridge after the first cave. Additionally, the ''Mario Kart'' logo above the starting line is now three-dimensional and lacks the black border. The water geysers can now be tricked off of while they erupt, as opposed to flipping the racers over in the previous versions. The [[Noshi]]'s snout can now also be tricked off of while gliding.  

 

The course also appears as '''Dino Dino Jungle R''' (reversed), '''Dino Dino Jungle T''' (with ramps), and '''Dino Dino Jungle R/T''' (reversed with ramps). The former two debuted alongside the regular variant in the New York Tour, while the latter debuted in the [[Valentine's Tour]]. In the R variant, there is a [[Glide Ramp|glide ramp]] right after the crystal cave, and the Noshi is at the end of the track. In the R/T variant, racers are forced onto the outermost path of the bridge with three branches and go over the crystal cave, and there are extra water geysers at the end of the track.
