Toucan'ts[1] are small, black toucan enemies appearing in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and its Nintendo Switch port. They only appear in the Juicy Jungle area of the game. Toucan'ts have a red, green, and yellow beak and are always seen rolling on a green, spiked berry.

A Toucan't, as seen in-game

Toucan'ts balance themselves on top of their berry and roll along the ground. Occasionally, the berry will expel spores and send the Toucan't flying in the air. The Kongs cannot roll into the Toucan't because of the spiked berry, and going under one is not advisable either, as the berry's spores can harm the Kongs as well. However, Toucan'ts can be defeated by jumping on their heads or throwing a projectile at them, such as a barrel.
