In the latter game, their name is spelled '''Minkys'''. In both games, Minkeys hold on to a perch from a tree, repeatedly throwing acorns at [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]]. Minkeys cannot be defeated, but Dixie or Kiddy can move behind a [[Barrel Shield]] to protect themselves from being hit. In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', Minkeys only appear in one level, [[Barrel Shield Bust-Up]], where they are the main enemy and obstacle. In the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], Minkeys also appear in [[Sunken Spruce]]. Additionally, [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]] features a photograph of a Minkey categorized under [[Terrorfirma Tuff Guys]]. In ''Donkey Kong Land III'', they appear in three levels: [[Minky Mischief]], [[Redwood Rampage]], and [[Simian Shimmy]], slightly more than in ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''.

'''Minkies''' (originally known as '''Minkeys''') are small, white monkeys encountered in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. According to ''Donkey Kong Country 3's'' credits, Minkys belong to the "[[Terrorfirma Tuff Guys]]" enemy class.
 
In ''Donkey Kong Country 3'', Minkys are found only in one level called [[Barrel Shield Bust-Up]], which is located in the area [[Kremwood Forest]]. Minkys attack [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] by hurling an acorn at them from their perch in a tree; they then proceed to duck back into their perch and pop back out to throw another acorn. Dixie or Kiddy can either dodge these thrown nuts or use a [[Barrel Shield]] to protect themselves.
 
In ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'', Minkys are slightly more common, being found in the three levels, [[Minky Mischief]], [[Redwood Rampage]] and [[Simian Shimmy]].
 
In the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake of ''Donkey Kong Country 3'' Minkys are also found in the level, [[Sunken Spruce]], which is located in the area [[Pacifica]], a world exclusive to the remake.
 
==Trivia==
*Minkys resemble the helpful [[Party Monkey]]s of ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'' and the evil [[Ninjape]]s of the same game.
