The '''Skellirex''' is an undead skeletal dinosaur-like enemy that appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and | The '''Skellirex''' is an undead skeletal dinosaur-like enemy that appears in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. 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 (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|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. | Like most enemies, Skellirexes have a repeated pattern of walking left then right.
