Hoofer (known as Mooshin in Japan and the European GameCube version) is a large black wildebeest with yellow hair, red eyes and hooves and a light-brown mouth. He is one of Donkey Kong's Jungle Buddies in Donkey Kong Jungle Beat and New Play Control! Donkey Kong Jungle Beat.
History[edit]
Donkey Kong Jungle Beat[edit]
Hoofer appears in Silver Snow Peak, Ice Warren, Arctic Plunge, Iguanagon's Realm, and at the end of Asteroid Belt. His abilities are similar to Rambi from Donkey Kong Country, as he can smash through enemies and barriers with ease. However, Hoofer runs constantly while Donkey Kong rides him. At the end of a level, after obtaining the giant fruit, he either performs a gigantic leap which can give Donkey Kong a certain number of beats depending on the distance traveled, or must leap between platforms to get more beats.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]
Hoofer appears in the form of a collectible sticker in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
