Minkey

Template:Species-infobox Minkeys are small, white monkeys encountered in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III. According to Donkey Kong Country 3's credits, Minkeys belong to the "Terrorfirma Tuff Guys" enemy class.

In Donkey Kong Country 3, Minkeys are only found in Barrel Shield Bust-Up, which is located in Kremwood Forest. Minkeys attack Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong by hurling an acorn at them from their perch in a tree; they then proceed to duck back into their perch and pop back out to throw another acorn. Dixie or Kiddy can either dodge the acorns or use a Barrel Shield to protect themselves.

In Donkey Kong Land III, Minkeys are slightly more common, being found in three levels, Minky Mischief, Redwood Rampage and Simian Shimmy.

In the Game Boy Advance remake of Donkey Kong Country 3, Minkeys are also found in Sunken Spruce, which is located in Pacifica, a world exclusive to the remake.
