They are bushes with glowing yellow eyes and two short legs. Mimics blend in with the scenery due to their bush appearance as well as the fact that they appear in silhouette levels only. Whenever a Mimic is approached by the [[Kong]]s, it hops up and chases them. Touching a Mimic takes away one of the Kongs' heart points, like with most enemies. A Mimic can be defeated from either a [[jump]] or a [[Roll Attack]]. If Donkey Kong [[Hand Slap]]s with a Mimic on the screen, leaves will shake off from the bush; the leaves also move around slightly while regular bushes have no animation.

''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Game Guide.

They only appear in silhouette levels, and appear to be bushes with glowing yellow eyes and two short legs.
 
At first, Mimics blend in with the scenery due to their bush appearance. When the [[Kong]]s approach a Mimic, it hops up and chases them. Like most enemies, if the Kongs come in contact with a Mimic, they lose a heart point. The Kongs can defeat a Mimic from either a jump or a roll attack. If Donkey Kong [[Hand Slap]]s with a Mimic on the screen, leaves will shake off from the bush; regular bushes do not do this. The Mimics leaves also move around slightly while regular bushes have no animation.


In ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'', Mimics only appear in one level, [[Sunset Shore]]. In ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'', they only appear in one level, [[Busted Bayou]], along with their larger counterpart, [[Large Mimic]]s.
