Tucks walk slowly from side to side, and if touched from the sides, they will slap the Kongs and cause them to lose one heart from their health counter. However, Tucks are vulnerable to absolutely any attack, such as a stomp on their broad hunches, a roll move, or a projectile tossed at them. Due to their primitive method of defense, Tucks can be compared to Kritters, Klomps, Kobbles, and Tiki Goons from the previous installments of the Donkey Kong Country games.
