Krockhead Barrel

A Krockhead Barrel,[1] also formatted as Krockhead barrel,[2] is a type of barrel which only appears in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Land 2. These barrels depict a Krockhead, specifically a green one in the former game. In both games, Krockhead Barrels only appear in their respective iteration of the level Krockhead Klamber.

Krockhead Barrels are usually found hovering in the air. If Diddy or Dixie Kong touch the barrel, it summons several Krockheads, which the Kongs can use to cross large gaps. The Krockheads summoned by a Krockhead Barrel only surface above the water temporarily, meaning that the Kongs need to hop on them quickly, before they vanish back in the water.
