Slippas are enemies in ''Donkey Kong Country''. Slippas move by slithering on the ground. Slippas can be defeated from any attack, including being rolled into, jumped on, or from a [[barrel]]. A Slippa makes a hissing noise when defeated. In [[Misty Mine]], Slippas are released from some [[black drum]]s indefinitely.
In their debut appearance, ''Donkey Kong Country'', Slippas appear in four levels: [[Reptile Rumble]], [[Millstone Mayhem]], [[Elevator Antics]], and [[Misty Mine]]; all of them are subterranean except Millstone Mayhem. Slippas move by quickly slithering on the ground. [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] can defeat Slippas by using any attack, including rolling, jumping, or throwing a [[barrel]] at them. When a Slippa is defeated, it makes a hissing noise. In Misty Mine, there are some [[black drum]]s that release an indefinite number of Slippas.
 
In the boss level [[Boss Dumb Drum]], Slippas are the second pair of enemies that [[Dumb Drum]] releases.
 
In the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], the Kongs can obtain a [[photograph]] of Slippa by rolling into three of them in a row.

Slippas reappear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'', where they have slightly different role than in ''Donkey Kong Country''. They appear in many more levels and in a wider variety of environments, including mines, jungles, and skyscrapers. Slippas sometimes pop out of [[Basket of snakes|baskets]].


===''Donkey Kong Land''===
In [[Riggin' Rumble]] and [[Skyscraper Caper]], Slippas slither down the ropes until they reach the bottom. These Slippas can only be defeated by a thrown [[barrel]].
