'''Tawks''' is a [[List of characters|character]] in the [[Nintendo Switch]] [[Reissue#Ports|port]] of ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. He resembles a {{wp|scarlet macaw}} donning a {{wp|cockatoo}} crest, similar to a mohawk. Tawks has a similar anatomy to [[Squawks]]. His name may be a pun on "talks," in order to continue the vocalization-based theme naming with Squawks, [[Quawks]], and [[Screech (Donkey Kong Country 2)|Screech]]. Tawks is present only during the [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)#Differences from the Wii U version|Funky Mode]], appearing in different stances at [[Funky's Fly 'n' Buy]], depending on what character is played as. While [[Donkey Kong]] is controlled, Tawks acts as a figurant character standing behind [[Funky Kong]]. While Funky Kong is controlled, Tawks wears a pair of shades and replaces him as the shopkeeper of Funky's Fly 'n' Buy. In this instance, Tawks adopts many of Funky Kong's mannerisms and quotes in an attempt to impersonate him, aided by his cheerful and energetic tone. He offers Funky a discount for all items present in the shop, since they are being sold to the shop owner.
