Sneeks are enemies that appear in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble and Donkey Kong Land III. These big rats replace the Neeks from Donkey Kong Country 2, but they look uglier and more aggressive. Sneeks are common, weak enemies, as they just walk around while squealing. They can be defeated by any attack, so they are not a real threat. They can be found in all kinds of turfs, such as mills, forests, jungles or mountains. According to the game's credits, Sneeks belong to the "Terrorfirma Tuff Guys" enemy class.
Sneeks play an important role in the level Squeals on Wheels, which takes place inside a mill in Kremwood Forest. In this area, many Sneeks are running around in large wooden wheels. In order to open the doors in their path, Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong must take out all the rats by tossing Steel Kegs at them.
Another interesting feature about Sneeks is that Ellie the Elephant, in classic cartoonish way, will get spooked if she sees one, causing her to run in panic. In Murky Mill, the fifth level of the game, most Sneeks are too hard for her to see because of the darkness, unless they walk directly under the lights. In this case, Ellie must take care of the rats by tossing Barrels at them from a distance. An entire Krematoa level, called Stampede Sprint, also revolves around this: near the beginning of the level, Ellie will be frightened by three Sneeks, causing her to stampede through the jungle. Ellie is not scared of Sneeks in Donkey Kong Land III, although this is likely due to system limitations.
