'''Spinies''' are [[List of enemies|enemies]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. These porcupines have brown fur and pointed black and white quills protecting them from both rear and jumping attacks and damaging the the player characters if attempted. A Spiny can be defeated either by rolling into its exposed front, throwing an object at it, a [[team up]] throw (including on its quills), or jumping on it with either [[Rambi the Rhino|Rambi]] or [[Rattly the Rattlesnake|Rattly]]. In [[Castle Crush]], a [[Klampon]] sometimes accompanies a Spiny, with the opposite trait of Klampons being that they cannot be defeated from roll attacks but are vulnerable to being [[jump]]ed on.


A similar enemy, known as [[Bristles]], appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''.
'''Spinies''' are porcupine enemies found in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. They are invulnerable to rear attacks or a stomp because of their pointy quills, but a frontal attack will quickly dispose of them. Occasionally, they are seen with a [[Klampon]] in front, "bodyguarding" them, as Klampons are kind of the opposite of Spiny (invulnerable to front attacks, but vulnerable from top).


==Profiles and statistics==
Spinies also appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. There is no real difference between the Spinies of this game and the ones found in ''Donkey Kong Country 2''.

Even though they are immune to jump attacks, Spinies can also be defeated by teaming up and throwing [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] or [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] at them. And although their quills prevent jumping, [[Rambi the Rhino|Rambi]] and [[Rattly the Rattlesnake|Rattly]] can jump off one harmlessly.
