Most [[Kremling]]s are a part of the Kremling Krew, as are a few other creatures. The Kremling Krew repeatedly attempts to steal [[Donkey Kong]]'s [[banana hoard]] and conquer the [[DK Isles]]. They are the main foes of the [[Kong#Kong Family|Kong Family]].

==History==

===''Donkey Kong Country''===

In ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', the Kremling Krew, under the command of K. Rool, invaded [[Donkey Kong Island]] and stole Donkey Kong's hoard of [[banana]]s. Donkey Kong teamed up with [[Diddy Kong]] to reclaim his bananas and rid his island of the Kremling Krew.

The Kremling Krew returned in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. This time, the gang was under the control of Kaptain K. Rool, King K. Rool's pirate alter-ego. The members of the Kremling Krew copied their master, dressing in pirate regalia and even wearing wooden pegs or hooks. The Kremling Krew kidnapped Donkey Kong and brought them to their capital base of operations, [[Crocodile Isle]]. Diddy Kong, teaming up with his girlfriend [[Dixie Kong]], destroyed the island, seemingly ending the Kremling threat.

===''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''===

Months later in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'',<ref>{{cite|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|date=1996|title=''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'' instruction booklet|page=4}}</ref> the Kremling Krew returned as the "[[Dixie Kong's Photo Album#Kremling Kreeps|Kremling Kreeps]]", supposedly under the leadership of a robot named [[KAOS]]. KAOS is later revealed to be under the control of Baron K. Roolenstein, the mad scientist persona of K. Rool. New members were recruited this time around, including [[Koin]]s, [[Bazuka]]s, [[Kopter]]s and [[Kuchuka]]s. Their bases of operations are located in [[Mekanos]], [[Kaos Kore]], and [[Krematoa]].

===''Donkey Kong 64''===

King K. Rool and his Kremling Krew once more attempted to invade the DK Isles in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', this time arriving in a mechanized version of Crocodile Isle. The Kremlings intended to destroy the isles with a super-weapon known as the [[Blast-o-Matic]], which was damaged on account of the incompetence of the artificial island's pilots, who accidentally crashed the mobile fortress into a small island. They also attempted to use the giant Kremling known as [[K. Lumsy]] to smash the Kongs, but when he refused, he was locked up in a cage, with the keys guarded by high-ranking members of the Kremling Krew.

===''DK: Jungle Climber''===

In ''[[DK: Jungle Climber]]'', the gang had stolen the [[Crystal Banana]]s in order to conquer the universe. This time, only two members appear: [[Kritter]]s and [[Klobber]]s. Their bases of operation are located in [[Ghost Island]] and [[Chill 'n' Char Island]].
