'''Tucks''' are pudgy, hunched penguins who appear as common enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. They are the most common foot soldiers of the [[Snowmads]], comparable to [[Tiki Goon]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]''. Tucks wear tightened green striped pants with a knotted rope around their waist. Tucks is likely derived from 'tuxedo', which penguins are often said to be wearing in reference to their black and white feather pattern.

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]].
