Bristles are encountered in waterfall levels and jungle levels mainly. A Bristles can be defeated from being rolled into from the front, because their quills harm the Kongs, much like Spinies in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. Unlike Spinies, Bristles are unaffected by a team up throw, also damaging the Kong in the process. Alternatively, a Bristles can be defeated either from a barrel or a Steel Keg being thrown at it, or from Squawks spitting a coconut at it. A unique type of Bristles appears in Konveyor Rope Klash of Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!; they curl up before tossing themselves at Dixie and Kiddy and can be defeated only from a barrel in this state. In Dixie Kong's Photo Album, a Bristles is categorized as part of the Terrorfirma Tuff Guys.
In the remake of Donkey Kong Country 3, curled up Bristles have a role in the Cranky's Dojo minigame, where the goal is for Cranky to deflect thirty of them as they bounce at him.
