In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', Kannons are common enemies, and attack by shooting [[barrel]]s or [[Cannonball|kannonball]]s at the [[Kong]]s in whatever direction they're facing, either forward or downward. Kannons can be found in several levels, but mostly underground areas. Despite being large and burly, [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] can easily defeat a Kannon with any attack method | [[File:Kannon jumping.png|thumb|150px|left|''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' appearance]] | ||

According to the instruction booklet, Kannons are simply [[Klump]]s trained to use such weapons.<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest Instruction Booklet'', Nintendo, 1995, p. 29, SNS-ADNE-USA. "It looks like Klump can shoot!"</ref> However, while normal Klumps wear army gear (green helmet, grenade belt, etc.) Kannons wear more of a pirate ensemble, such as earrings, a large belt, and a large black hat with a skull and cross-bones on it. Also, Kannons seem to have distinct ears. | According to the instruction booklet, Kannons are simply [[Klump]]s trained to use such weapons.<ref>''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest Instruction Booklet'', Nintendo, 1995, p. 29, SNS-ADNE-USA.
