'''Tucks''' are common enemies appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. They are pudgy and hunched penguin-like members of the [[Snowmads]] and are also among the most common and easy to defeat species in the game. They wear green striped trousers tightened around their waists with a knotted rope. Their name likely comes from 'tuxedo', which penguins are often said to be wearing in reference to the pattern of their black and white feathers. Tucks have a hunched spine, which causes them to bend above the ground.

Tucks walk slowly from side to side, and if touched from the sides, they will slap the [[Kong]]s 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 Attack|roll]] move, or a projectile tossed at them. Due to their primitive method of defense, Tucks can be compared to [[Kritter]]s, [[Klomp]]s, [[Kobble]]s, and [[Tiki Goon]]s from the previous installments of the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' games.
Tucks walk slowly from side to side. If the [[Kong]]s get in contact with a Tucks, it slaps them, causing them to lose a heart of their health. Tucks are among the weakest enemies in the game and can be defeated by any attack, such as a [[stomp]] or a [[Roll Attack|roll attack]]. Tucks sometimes appear in groups, so the Kongs can jump on them in succession to potentially earn a [[Banana Coin]].
