'''Green Finleys'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier. ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Game Guide.

In spite of this, they resemble neither [[Blue Finley|blue]] nor [[Red Finley|red Finleys]], and appear in completely different stances in the game.

'''Green Finleys'''<ref name=Prima>{{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=13|date=February 21, 2014|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|isbn=978-0-804-16252-4}}</ref> are a relative of [[Finley]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]]. In spite of this, they resemble neither [[Blue Finley|Blue]] nor [[Red Finley]]s. Green Finleys are somewhat similar to both {{wp|wrasse}}s and {{wp|anglerfish}}, owing to their wide mouths, minuscule eyes and plump rectangular bodies. They are the rarest species in the Finley group, and behave differently each time they are found.  


Green Finleys first appear in the first boss level, [[Big Top Bop]], where [[Pompy]] throws them from the water onto the arena. Once there, Green Finleys leap agitatedly, chasing the [[Kong]]s to try and damage them. The Kongs can either [[stomp]] or roll into a Green Finley to defeat it. Alternatively, they can dodge the Green Finleys until they retreat into the water.
Green Finleys are somewhat similar to both {{wp|wrasse}}s and {{wp|anglerfish}}, owing to their wide mouths, minuscule eyes and plump rectangular bodies. They are the least common species in the Finley group, being only found in a few levels throughout the game, and behave differently each time. They first show up in the battle with [[Pompy]], where he tosses them from the water onto the arena. Once there, Green Finleys start leaping agitatedly, chasing the [[Kong]]s to damage them. However, the player can either dodge them long enough before they retreat willingly in the water, or stomp them once to defeat them.


Green Finleys later appear in [[Twilight Terror]], where they jump out of the water when the Kongs pass by on their [[Rocket Barrel]]. They carry various items enclosed inside [[bubble]]s, which the Kongs can collect. If crashed into, both the Green Finley and the Rocket Barrel are damaged.
Other Green Finleys appear in [[Twilight Terror]], a level from [[Bright Savannah]]. Here, they jump out of the water right when the Kongs pass by on their [[Rocket Barrel]], carrying various items enclosed inside [[bubble]]s. The Kongs can either collect the items, or crash into the enemy, which results in damaging both the Green Finley and the Rocket Barrel.


A single Green Finley makes an appearance in [[Cannon Canyon]], where it repeatedly jumps out of the water with an [[KONG Letters|N letter]] on its lips, much like the Green Finleys in Twilight Terror. This appearance is distinct because the Kongs cannot interact with the Green Finley in any way, since the [[Barrel Cannon]]'s launch trajectory does not interfere with the Green Finley.
A single Green Finley makes an appearance in [[Cannon Canyon]], where it repeatedly jumps out of the water with an [[K-O-N-G Letters|N letter]] on its lips, much like the Green Finleys in Twilight Terror. This stance is distinct because the Kongs cannot interact with the fish in any way, since they are carried by a [[Barrel Cannon]] whose launch trajectory does not interfere with the Finley. Instead, they could wait inside the cannon and launch themselves with precision, so they could collect the N letter that jumps up and down in the river stream, depending on the Finley's movements.
