Grave Tusk is fought much the same way [[Turret Tusk]] and [[Torch Tusk]] are fought. At first, he has the same attacks as Turret Tusk, but after enough damage is done to him, he gains a laser attack. The only way to dodge this attack is to get into a corner that the laser will not hit. Again, [[Donkey Kong]] must throw [[Pineapple]]s at him to reveal and attack his heart. Grave Tusk seems to be fought in the desert.
