A Squeekly (pluralized as Squeeklys[1] or Squeeklies[2]) is an enemy in Donkey Kong Country Returns and its Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Switch ports. They are encountered in some levels of the Cave and the Forest, and other dark levels. These purple bat-like creatures attack by flying straight forward, and can be defeated from either being jumped on, small peanuts, or an object such as a barrel thrown at it. Some Squeeklys fly higher than others and are more difficult to attack. Squeeklys appear prominently in Crowded Cavern, alongside Chū Komorin and a Big Squeekly. There is a specific formation where some small Squeeklys attack from the front, Chū Komorin that attack by flying up or down when they feel the Kongs approaching, and a Big Squeekly that chases them throughout the level, able to emit powerful sonic waves from its mouth to damage them. The smallest Squeeklys often appear in large groups. The Squeeklys cannot be defeated in any way, unlike with other levels.
