'''Tucks''' are pudgy, hunched penguins that appear as common enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|Nintendo Switch port]]. They are the [[Snowmads]]' most common foot soldiers, comparable to [[Tiki Goon]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]''. Tucks typically wear tightened green striped pants with a knotted rope around their waist. Their name comes from a shortening of "tuxedo", a type of formal suit that resembles the color of a penguin’s feathers.

There is a pantless variety of Tucks<ref>{{cite|title=「ドンキーコングトロピカルフリーズ任天堂公式ガイドブック」 (''Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze Nintendo Kōshiki Guidebook'')|page=195 and 196}} This version of the enemy has the same name as normal Tucks.</ref> that bounces on springy objects, such as elastic drapes and jelly blocks. They bounce in one place or back and forth between two spots, damaging the Kongs upon contact. Compared to other enemies, bouncing Tucks are rather uncommon in the game. A single bouncing Tucks can be found inside a windmill in the level [[Windmill Hills]]. More bouncing Tucks can be spotted in [[Jelly Jamboree]]. The different types of jelly blocks that appear in the level do not influence their jump height as they do with the Kongs. However, like the Kongs, bouncing Tucks are able to use blue jelly blocks to move certain mechanisms.
