They are a sub-species of [[Snaggles]], another shark enemy species. They are yellow with sharp teeth, and resemble tiger sharks.


Like regular Snaggles, they leap out of the water at regular intervals, but will make a quick additional leap right afterwards without any warning. They appear in the [[Beach]] world, and in some other levels, including [[Damp Dungeon]]. They can only be defeated by being struck with a [[barrel]]. If Super Snaggles make contact with the [[Kong]]s, they will lose a heart from his health meter. Super Snaggleses make dog noises when they jump out of the water, just like their relatives.

Super Snaggles operate differently in ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'', in that instead of jumping out of the water, they'll simply chase any Kong who's within their range. However, they can't attack the Kongs if they're not underwater.
===''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze''===
Yellow Snaggles are enemies in ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' and its Nintendo Switch port. They are encountered in underwater areas only, where they chase after the [[Kong]]s, and therefore do not jump out of the water. They are found in [[Shoal Atoll]] and [[Panicky Paddles]]. Yellow Snaggles can be defeated with [[Cranky Kong]]'s underwater cane attack or by throwing a projectile at it, such as a [[barrel]], a [[Watermelon Fuse Bomb]], or a [[Tuff Tucks]], while on land.
