They attack by shooting [[barrel]]s or [[Cannonball|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, [[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. | ||

*[[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. | *[[Kaptain Skurvy]], a character from the [[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' animated series]], resembles a Kannon.

*Kannon was named "Klumpa" in [[List of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest pre-release and unused content|earlier builds]] of ''Donkey Kong Country 2''. | |||
