'''Cling Cobras''' are cobra-like enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]'', found in the [[Forest (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Forest]] world. They cling on to grassy areas, waiting to slither into [[Donkey Kong|Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]]. This makes it harder for the [[Kong]]s to advance. They may even make the two Kongs lose their balance, causing them to fall down from the grassy area they are holding onto and into a pit, causing them to lose a life. Their entire body appears to be yellow except for their brown eyes, and they possess large, sharp teeth in their mouth.

Wiggles,[1] originally known as Cling Cobras,[2] are enemies in Donkey Kong Country Returns and its Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Switch ports. They only appear in Clingy Swingy. Wiggles have a yellow body and an orange stripe spanning across their back. They have red eyes and a set of sharp teeth that match the yellow color of their body. Cling Cobra's name is derived from king cobra, a type of venomous snake in real life. Wiggles zip across round wooden platforms, which are at last partially covered with cling patches. While they only move in one direction and loop around, they can stay on platforms without a cling patch underneath them. If Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong touch a Wiggle, it stops to bite them and they lose a heart. A Wiggle can be defeated with a stomp, Roll Attack, or by throwing a barrel at them.
