Klaptraps appear commonly in ''Donkey Kong Country''. They move left or right continuously while snapping their jaws, which plays a digitized sample of one of the game artists clattering his teeth together, something that had startled other team members.<ref>{{cite|author=Shesez|date=November 21, 2019|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwWHzilbQ34&t=2989s|timestamp=49:49|title=The Donkey Kong Country 25th Anniversary Interview Documentary|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=August 8, 2023}}</ref> Klaptraps are unaffected by a [[Roll Attack]] from the front, and this even damages the player character in the process.<ref>{{cite|quote=Klaptrap's teeth are too big to use the roll attack! You need to jump on him!|author=[[Cranky Kong]]|date=1994|title=''Donkey Kong Country''|location=[[Cranky's Cabin]]|publisher=Nintendo|language=en}}</ref> Since Klaptraps are short, [[Expresso]] can use its long legs to move straight through them. Klaptraps have a purple variant unique to [[Loopy Lights]] that [[jump]] in sync with the [[Kong]]s, with some moving and others staying put. The jumping type was recolored brown in the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Color)|first remake]], then to red in the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|second remake]].
Klaptraps are common enemies in their debut appearance, ''Donkey Kong Country''. They behave similar to [[Gnawty|Gnawties]], by moving in a single direction. A notable difference with Klaptraps is that they repeatedly chomp while moving around. As such, frontal attacks do not work on Klaptraps, as they will just damage [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] if they attempt to beat them that way. Given their short size, the [[Kong]]s can easily avoid Klaptraps by jumping over them. Klaptraps cannot hurt [[Expresso the Ostrich|Expresso]] because it has long legs that they move straight through. Klaptraps first appear in [[Stop & Go Station]] and return in [[Orang-utan Gang]], [[Snow Barrel Blast]], [[Slipslide Ride]], [[Ice Age Alley]], [[Trick Track Trek]], [[Blackout Basement]], and lastly [[Misty Mine]].
 
Klaptraps have a purple variant in [[Loopy Lights]] and also a [[bonus room|Bonus Area]] of [[Trick Track Trek]]. In the [[Game Boy Color]] version, these Klaptraps are changed to brown, and in the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, they are changed to red. These Klaptraps behave mostly the same as their light blue counterpart, except that they [[jump]] whenever the [[Kong]]s do, thus making them harder to avoid than normal ones. Some purple Klaptraps remain in one spot and do not move around.
 
In this game, the sound of Klaptraps snapping their jaws is a digitized sample of one of the game artists clattering his teeth together, which was a noise that startled other team members.<ref>Shesez (November 21, 2019).

Klaptraps is one of three Kremling enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'', along with [[Krusha]]s and [[Kritter]]s. Klaptraps function the same, but the jumping variety does not return.
Klaptraps are one of the three Kremling enemies who reappear in the handheld title, ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'', the other two being [[Krusha]]s and [[Kritter]]s. They have the same behavior as in ''Donkey Kong Country'', although the jumping Klaptraps do not reappear. Klaptraps first appear in [[Riggin' Rumble]], and return in [[Snake Charmer's Challenge]], [[Pot Hole Panic (Donkey Kong Land)|Pot Hole Panic]], [[Kong Krazy]], and lastly [[Skyscraper Caper]], a total of five level appearances.

An individual Klap Trap appears as an antagonist in the [[Donkey Kong Country (novel)|''Donkey Kong Country'' novel]]. An employee of the Kremling factory, Klap Trap has a small chat with his coworker [[Zinger]] about [[King K. Rool]]'s absence at the site and he then notices that the [[Kong]]s are eavesdropping on them. Klap Trap lunges at the group, but [[Diddy Kong]] defeats him by doing a [[Cartwheel Attack|cartwheel]]. The Kongs destroy the factory shortly after.

In the novel ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Rumble in the Jungle]]'', while looking for a replacement part for [[Funky Kong]]'s [[barrel plane]], [[Diddy Kong]] encounters a Klap Trap within the [[Kremling]]s' supply room. Diddy Kong immediately tries to attack the Klap Trap, however it quickly evades all of his attacks, causing Diddy to crash into a storage shelf. Diddy manages to lodge a [[barrel]] in the Klap Trap's jaws while it was charging towards him, allowing Diddy time to escape the store room with the water pump.

Klaptraps are ammunition for the [[Klap-Blaster]] weapon in the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' animated series. They are bipedal and capable of speech, unlike their counterparts in ''Donkey Kong Country''. A Klaptrap often makes a sarcastic comment about its job or what it had just eaten. The show also features a singular [[Jr. Klap Trap|Klaptrap character]] larger than his brethren.
In the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' animated series, Klaptraps are, instead of soldiers, ammunition for a weapon called a [[Klap-Blaster]]. Unlike the Klaptraps of the games, the ones on the show are bipedal and capable of speaking. Often times when a Klaptrap is seen, it makes a sarcastic comment about its job or what it had just eaten. The show also features a singular [[Jr. Klap Trap|Klaptrap character]] larger than his brethren.

===''Donkey Kong 64''===
[[File:Klaptrap64.jpg|thumb|150px|Klaptraps were entirely redesigned in ''Donkey Kong 64'']]
Klaptraps reappear as enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', where they are green rather than light blue. Their expression is more vicious rather than neutral and their behavior is similar to a guard dog, wearing collars and growling like one. This makes them somewhat resemble Krimps from ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', which also have a similar, vicious expression, and have also been described as dog-like Kremlings, as well as wearing a dog collar. Klaptraps have had their behavior changed in that when a Klaptrap sees a [[Kong]], it growls similarly to a dog and chomps at them. Klaptraps can be defeated in one hit (including frontal attacks, which are ineffective in previous games); however, their set of dentures still remain and continually clamp after the Kongs. The dentures eventually break by either crashing into a wall or falling into water. If the Kongs use an [[Orange]] or their musical instrument move to defeat a Klaptrap, its teeth do not chase after them.


===''Donkey Kong 64''===
One Klaptrap in particular sits on [[King K. Rool]]'s lap in several cutscenes, being petted by its master, likely a reference to ''{{wp|James Bond}}'' villain {{wp|Ernst Stavro Blofeld|Blofeld}}. K. Rool's pet Klaptrap is last seen startled by K. Rool when he's awoken by the alarm, revealing the Kongs have entered [[Hideout Helm]]. There is another specific Klaptrap, and it is playable in the [[minigame]] [[Beaver Bother]], where it has to guide a number of Gnawties down a hole within a barrel by snarling at them.

Klaptraps are enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. The standard type is colored green, sports a more vicious expression, and behaves similarly to guard dogs, wearing a collar and growling like them. When a Klaptrap sees a [[Kong]], it growls like a dog and chomps at them. A Klaptrap can be defeated in one hit from any attack, although this still leaves behind its set of dentures, which clamp after the Kongs until eventually crashing into a solid object or falling into water. This can be averted by defeating the Klaptrap using either an [[Orange]] or a musical instrument move. There are purple Klaptraps, which can be defeated only by using either an Orange or a musical instrument, with their spoils being three Oranges. One Purple Klaptrap is directed to move the helm-shaped hamster wheel left and right in the opening scene. There are also red Klaptraps, which appear in two cutscenes: In the "[[Creepy Castle|Castle Intro]]", a giant red Klaptrap is sent out by K. Rool to execute a fleeing [[Kasplat]].
The game also features purple Klaptraps that are immune to every direct attack method that the Kongs have. They are even completely immune to the Kongs' [[Super Slam|shockwave attack]]; using it will just hurt the Kongs, while the purple Klaptrap is unaffected. They can only be defeated with an Orange or a musical instrument, and drop three Oranges upon defeat. One of them is seen being directed to move the helm-shaped hamster wheel left and right in the opening scene. There are also red Klaptraps, which only appear in two cutscenes. In one of them, the "[[Creepy Castle|Castle Intro]]", a giant red Klaptrap was sent out by K. Rool to execute a fleeing [[Kasplat]].

Klaptraps are obstacles in the [[100M Vine Climb]] minigame of ''[[Donkey Konga]]''. They appear in light-blue and pink varieties, both of which walk on the [[vine]]s and their connected bushes. A Klaptrap can cause Donkey Kong to fall off of the vines on contact, before he respawns seconds later. They are depicted with longer bodies than usual.

They swim through the water rapids and jump out from it, attempting to damage {{iw|smashwiki|fighter}}s by biting them. In Kongo Jungle, Klaptraps can also fall into, occupy, and use the [[Barrel Cannon]]; these Klaptraps are colored orange, while those on Jungle Japes are light blue. In ''[[Super Smash Bros.

Klaptraps have two other roles in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''. A Klaptrap also appears as the first and only [[Assist Trophy]] from the ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]'' series, where it lunges and bites on to opponents. If Klaptraps are hit, they make the same sound they did when they were defeated in ''Donkey Kong Country''. One additionally appears as an Advanced Attack [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]], which must be unlocked by playing {{iw|smashwiki|Classic Mode (SSBU)|Classic Mode}} with [[King K. Rool]] and reaching the goal of the bonus stage within 45 seconds.
