Template:Species-infobox Mole Miners are enemies appearing in Donkey Kong Country Returns. They only appear in the Cave area of DK Island, but they are very common in this area. They are the ones whom constructed all of the rails and mine carts in the Cave, and they can frequently be found riding these carts. They also sometimes tie balloons to themselves so they can ride in the air. Mole Guards are Mole Miners that throw Bombs at the Kongs. Mole Guards are seen in a minecart on a different track than the Kongs.

Appearance

As their name suggests, they heavily resemble real moles. They are all brown in color, and have pink paws. Their headlamps cover their eyes, and they appear to have freckles on the side of their faces. They also have stubby little tails, and one large tooth sticking out of their mouths.

Attacks

Mole Miners carry axes which they use to attack. They are only a small threat, and are easy to avoid. In the Mine Cart levels, the only attack they have is to simply go the wrong way, so the Kongs must jump over (or on top of) them.
