'''Sour Dodos'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier. ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Game Guide. Page 14.</ref> are uncommon enemies appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. These are blue variants of [[Dozy|Dozies]], and have a worse temper. Therefore, just like their counterparts (and also further evidenced by their names), they are based on [[wiktionary:Dodo|dodos]], a genus of prehistoric birds.
When a Sour Dodo spots the [[Kong]]s, it starts charging towards them in an effort of attack. Until then, the Dodo only struts up and down the alley they are on. Sour Dodos are just as vulnerable as Dozies, since the player can apply any method of attack on them: jumping on the birds' heads, [[Barrel Roll (move)|rolling]] into them, or tossing an object onto them. Ground pounding near a Sour Dodo stuns it for a moment, as it tries to recover from its state of dizziness. If [[Diddy Kong]], [[Dixie Kong]], or [[Cranky Kong]] fire their [[popgun]]s on a Sour Dodo, the creature stops for a brief period before beginning its usual stroll again.

Variant of Dozy

Sour Dodos[1] are enemies in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and its port. They are encountered in levels of the Lost Mangroves. Sour Dodos are a blue, more aggressive variant of Dozies. When a Sour Dodo spots the Kongs, it starts charging towards them in an effort to attack, similar to Rawks from Donkey Kong Country Returns. Until then, the Sour Dodo only walks back and forth at the same pace as a Dozy. The player can attack them using any method, such as jumping on their heads, rolling into them, or tossing an object onto them. Ground Pounding near a Sour Dodo stuns it for a moment. If Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong, or Cranky Kong fire their popguns on a Sour Dodo, the creature stops for a brief period before continuing to stroll.
