| | '''Kannons''' are large [[cannon]]-wielding members of the [[Kremling Krew]]; they only appear in the games ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. Kannons attack by shooting [[barrel]]s or [[kannonball]]s at the [[Kong]]s in whatever direction they're facing, either forward or downward. Kannons can be found in several levels, but mostly underground areas. Despite being large and burly, Kannons can be defeated with a simple jump on the head. |

| ==History==
| | According to the instruction booklet, Kannons are simply [[Klump]]s trained to use such weapons.<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest Instruction Booklet'', Nintendo, 1995, p. 29, SNS-ADNE-USA. "It looks like Klump can shoot!"</ref> However, while normal Klumps wear army gear (green helmet, grenade belt, etc.) Kannons wear more of a pirate ensemble such as earings, a large belt and large black hat with a skull and cross-bones on it. |

| Kannons are enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. They attack by shooting [[barrel]]s or [[Cannonball|kannonball]]s at the [[Kong]]s in whatever direction they are facing, either forward or downward. Kannons can be found in several levels, but mostly underground areas. Despite being large and burly, [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] can easily defeat a Kannon with any attack method. In the ending cast of characters, a Kannon appears under the "[[Kremling Kuthroats]]" enemy class. In the [[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|remake]], Kannon's defeat sound effect uses the same voice clip as [[Krunch]] from ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]''. | |
|
| |
|
| Kannon's original name the [[List of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest pre-release and unused content|game's development]] was "Klumpa."
| | ==Levels== |
| | | Kannon appear in the following levels. |

| Kannons are enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. They are first encountered in the game's equivalent of their namesake level, [[Kannon's Klaim (Donkey Kong Land 2)|Kannon's Klaim]]. Kannons behave similarly as in the previous game.

| *[[Kaptain Skurvy]], a character from the [[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' animated series]], resembles a Kannon. The only obvious difference is that Skurvy has a hand-cannon instead of a cannon, but it is still large enough to fire small cannonballs. | |
