'''Big Zings''' are razor-like enemies that appear in the [[Wii]] game ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. They are a sub-species of [[Tiki Zing]]s. The difference between Big Zings and Tiki Zings is that Big Zings are much bigger. They appear in the [[Forest (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Forest]] world levels [[Wigglevine Wonders]] and [[Blast & Bounce]], where they serve as obstacles and move vertically next to [[Barrel Cannon]]s, trying to harm the [[Kong]]s as they are shot out. If [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] make contact with these enemies, they will lose a life. Big Zings have seven razorblades and a sinister face. They are also indestructible, meaning they cannot be defeated.
