Ostrich, Donkey Kong Bananza

Ostriches are a group of avian creatures who appear in Donkey Kong Bananza. They inhabit the Forest Layer of the Underground World, where they operate the Eggshell Hotel under the management of the Ostrich Elder. Unlike real-life ostriches, they are capable of flight. They request aid from Donkey Kong and Pauline in helping undo the damage to the hotel caused by Void Kong.

The ostriches featured in Donkey Kong Bananza bear a resemblance to Expresso, an ostrich character featured in the Donkey Kong Country series.
