Queen B.
This article is about the Zinger boss in Donkey Kong Country. For the queen of the Beanbean Kingdom, see here.
Queen B. is the queen of the Zingers (and a Zinger herself). She is the guardian of Vine Valley and the third boss of Donkey Kong Country. In battle, Queen B. attempts to stab Donkey or Diddy Kong with her massive stinger. Since she has spikes on her back, Queen B. cannot be stomped. To defeat this large Zinger, Donkey or Diddy had to throw Barrels at the Queen’s stinger. Once hit, Queen B. would be damaged. She would then go on a rampage, turning red in the process. During this phase, Queen B. was invulnerable and the Kong heroes simply had to avoid her attacks. After, calming down, Donkey or Diddy could throw another Barrel at her stinger, starting the process over. After five Barrel hits, Queen B. was defeated. She has not been seen since.
In the GameBoy Advance remake of Donkey Kong Country, Queen B. is protected by normal Zingers. These Zingers must be destroyed before Queen B. can be attacked.
