Firehead Neds ride around in [[cart]]s with only their heads and necks visible. Both the cart and the creature's skull are filled with red-hot coals, giving their empty eye sockets a orange-red glow. They can extend their neck to shoot out fireballs. If touched by a [[Kong]], the monkey will lose a life. To be defeated, [[Donkey Kong]] must simply [[jump]] on Firehead Neds. Any other attack method can be used, too, such as throwing a [[barrel]], but [[Kong Roll]]s are rendered useless.

Variant of Bonehead Jed

Hothead Jeds,[1] originally known as Firehead Neds,[2] are enemies in Donkey Kong Country Returns and its port. These skeletal dinosaurs are a derived fiery species of Bonehead Jeds. They ride in barrel Mine Carts and only their head and extendable neck is visible. Like Bonehead Jeds, Hothead Jeds only appear in three of the earlier Cliff levels including: Sticky Situation, Prehistoric Path, and Boulder Roller. Hothead Jeds behave similar to Bonehead Jeds, except that they ride in barrel Mine Carts filled with molten rock, giving their empty eye sockets a orange-red glow. They can also extend their neck to shoot out fireballs. If a Kong comes into contact with a Hothead Jed, they take damage. A Hothead Jed can be defeated from being jumped onto twice, with the first hit temporarily immobilizing them. Other attack methods such as throwing a barrel also work, although Kong Rolls remain ineffective.
