The '''Skellirex'''<ref>"Critters 2" Gallery in the "Extras" section of the game</ref><ref>Michael Knight, ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Game Guide, page 27.</ref> is an undead dinosaur-like enemy that appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. These enemies are mostly found at the [[Cliff]] area of [[Donkey Kong Island]], but they also appear in the level, [[Tumblin' Temple]]. Skellirexes mostly move around from left to right, usually posing a minimal threat to [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]]. When attacked using any kind of attack method, they will lose their bodies and detach their heads, which become a slightly larger version of [[Skullyrex]]es. These begin creeping on the ground aimlessly, rapidly chomping air. Attacking the lone Skellirex head will destroy it.

There are also some Skellirexes that ride on [[Cart|mine carts]], which are found at [[Prehistoric Path]]. These Skellirexes can be taken out simply by jumping on them.

-The '''Skellirex''' is an undead skeletal dinosaur-like enemy that appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and its [[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D|Nintendo 3DS]] and [[Donkey Kong Country Returns HD|Nintendo Switch]] ports. They have a small body and a large crested skull vaguely reminiscent of ''{{wp|Parasaurolophus}}''. They first appear in the level [[Tumblin' Temple]], but they mostly appear in the [[Cliff (world)|Cliff]] world. In [[Prehistoric Path]], there are Skellirexes riding in [[Mine Cart]]s.

-Like most enemies, Skellirexes have a repeated pattern of walking left then right. If [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] come in contact with a Skellirex, it bites them and they lose a heart. The [[Kong]]s can safely attack Skellirexes with any attack. By doing so, the Skellirex loses its body, and its head detaches and forms into a [[Skullyrex]]. The Kongs can instantly defeat a Skellirex by directly attacking its head, and they can also instantly defeat the Mine Cart-riding Skellirexes by jumping on them.

-A Skellirex appears in concept artwork, where it more closely resembles a ''{{wp|Tyrannosaurus}}'' and is missing its crest.
