| | '''Mimics''' are enemies appearing in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. They only show up in silhouette stages, such as [[Sunset Shore]] (''DKCR/3D'') or [[Busted Bayou]] (''DKCTF''); as such, they look like shadow bushes with legs and glowing yellow eyes. At first, Mimics stay in one place, pretending to be actual bushes and waiting to surprise their pray - in this case, the [[Kong]]s. After this, Mimics start chasing them, in an attempt to hurt them. These enemies can be taken out by a stomp or by rolling into them. Exclusively in ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' exists a variation of Mimics called [[Big Mimic]]s. |

''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 13.</ref> are enemies that appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]'', ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'', and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]]. They only appear in silhouette levels, and appear to be bushes with glowing yellow eyes and two short legs. | |

| At first, Mimics blend in with the scenery due to their bush appearance. When the [[Kong]]s approach a Mimic, it hops up and chases them. Like most enemies, if the Kongs come in contact with a Mimic, they lose a heart point. The Kongs can defeat a Mimic from either a jump or a roll attack. If Donkey Kong [[Hand Slap]]s with a Mimic on the screen, leaves will shake off from the bush; regular bushes do not do this. The Mimics leaves also move around slightly while regular bushes have no animation. | |
| | |
| In ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'', Mimics only appear in one level, [[Sunset Shore]]. In ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'', they only appear in one level, [[Busted Bayou]], along with their larger counterpart, [[Large Mimic]]s.
