'''Very Gnawty''' is giant [[Gnawty]] and the boss of the [[Kongo Jungle]] in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. He is the first boss of the game. To defeat Very Gnawty, [[Donkey Kong]] or [[Diddy Kong]] must [[Jump]] on top of him five times. The beaver boss attacks by jumping horizontally at the Kongs. After each hit, he gets progressively faster and his leaps become progressively larger (however, the boss can still be easily avoided). After five hits, Very Gnawty collapses onto the ground.

'''Very Gnawty''', also named '''Gnawty''' and '''Gnawty Beaver''',<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) issue 26 (NMS Special)|page=11 and 13|date=November 1994|language=en-gb}}</ref> is a giant [[Gnawty]] and the first boss in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. Very Gnawty has black-patterned green fur and pink hands, ears and webbed feet, as well as two buckteeth, three fingers on each hand and an orange belly and tail. Its name is a pun on the phrase "very naughty," substituting the latter word with Gnawty. As a boss, Very Gnawty is fought in [[Very Gnawty's Lair]], at the end of [[Kongo Jungle]]. It repeatedly hops across the arena. Like with most other enemies, Very Gnawty can damage [[Donkey Kong]] or [[Diddy Kong]] by touching them. Very Gnawty can take damage from being [[stomp]]ed, and it moves quicker and hops higher with each hit. After five hits, Very Gnawty is defeated.


In the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], Very Gnawty's fur color was changed to red, formerly that of [[Really Gnawty]]'s, who in turn had its fur color changed to blue. Additionally, when Very Gnawty is hit in its boss battle, it jumps to the other side of the arena before continuing to hop around. Additionally, after defeating [[Really Gnawty]], there is a one-time event of Very Gnawty in [[DK's Tree House]], and when the Kongs enter, it turns around to look at them, pants, and proceeds to hop out of the entrance.
Very Gnawty is a palette swap of another boss, [[Really Gnawty]]. While Very Gnawty has gray fur, Really Gnawty has brown fur.


In ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', Very Gnawty is the mother of a baby Gnawty and attacks the heroes when they hurt her kid when he attempted to scare [[Mario]] and [[Yoshi]] with shadow tricks. She is defeated when Mario ignites some [[TNT Barrel]]s she is holding with a fireball. The baby Gnawty will later reappear in [[Millstone Mayhem]] trying to use the [[Millstone|titular obstacles]] to get revenge.
Interestingly Gnawtys equal in size to Very Gnawty appear in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', these large Gnawtys may be the same type of Gnawty as Very Gnawty. The only real difference between Very Gnawty and these Gnawtys is that the large Gnawtys of ''Donkey Kong 64'' can be defeated in just one hit instead of five like Very Gnawty.

==Trivia==
[[File:GiantGnawtyinDK64.png|200px|thumb|A giant Gnawty in ''Donkey Kong 64'']]
*Gnawties around the size of Very Gnawty appear in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', near [[Cranky's Lab]] in [[Jungle Japes]]. Despite their size, these Gnawties are as weak as regular ones and can be defeated in one hit.
*In ''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK)'s 26th issue, Really Gnawty was also named Gnawty Beaver like Very Gnawty, who was described as being his "fallen comrade."<ref>{{cite|language=en-gb|date=November 1994|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) issue 26 (NMS Special)|page=21}}</ref> On another page, generic Gnawties were also named Gnawty Beaver, specifically the ones operating the millstones.<ref>{{cite|quote=Huge millstones powered by Gnawty Beavers threaten to flatten our hero's{{sic}}.|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (UK) issue 26 (NMS Special)|page=24|date=November 1994}}</ref>
