Swoopies are large, red, sharp-beaked birds encountered in the game Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! Swoopys are the aerial equivalent of Bazzas and Lemguins, possessing a similar attack pattern of flying in lines from one hole in their tree to another. Despite being enemies , some Swoopies can be unintentionally helpful, if a Swoopy misses a Kong it will sometimes get stuck in a wall and can be used as a platform.
In the mandatory worlds Donkey Kong Country 3 a Swoopy is only encountered briefly in one of the levels in the area Kremwood Forest, Springin' Spiders. However, in the optional world Krematoa, the Swoopies have an entire level dedicated to them, called "Swoopy Salvo". Here Dixie and Kiddy Kong had to venture through a large petrified forest, all the while dodging barrages of Swoopiess. Several Swoopiess had to be used as steps to climb up trees.
Trivia
- Swoopies are one of the few enemies from Donkey Kong Country 3 that did not appear again in Donkey Kong Land III.
- Like Swoopers, their name comes from the fact that they swoop down at the Kongs.
