| '''Porcupals'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier. ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 13.</ref> are short porcupine-like enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]]. They have long, pointed red bristles on their back (similar to [[Bristles]] enemy from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''). Porcupals have long, turned-up snouts with small tusks and have a frowned face. Porcupals only appear in the [[Bright Savannah]] levels.

| Like most enemies, Porcupals start out walking back and forth in an area. Upon noticing the Kongs, Porcupal's bristles go on fire and turn darker and sharper. In this state, Porcupals can only be defeated by [[Water Sack|water sacks]], [[barrel]]s or other throwable objects. A Porcupal's flames eventually die out, allowing the Kongs to defeat it by a [[Roll Attack]] or by [[stomp]]ing on it. [[Donkey Kong]] can [[Hand Slap|Ground Pound]] near a Porcupal to stun it and, if burning, extinguish the fire on it. [[Rambi the Rhino]] can defeat a Porcupal when its flames are put out, though if Rambi gets hit by a Porcupal's fire, the Kongs lose him.
| | '''Porcupals''' are porcupine enemies appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. |
| | |
| | Porcupals attack by burning the player with the flame around them. However, the flame eventually goes out, and the Kongs have a chance to roll into the Porcupal to defeat it. Alternatively, [[Rambi]] can run into them to defeat them. |

| |
|
| Porcupals appear in [[Frantic Fields]], [[Scorch 'n' Torch]], [[Rickety Rafters]], and [[Bramble Scramble (Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze)|Bramble Scramble]]. In Frantic Fields, there are curled up, flaming Porcupals carried around by the wind; they cannot be defeated and must be avoided by the Kongs.
