“Your voice! Bright as the sssun! Now shine the ssspotlight on Snake Bananza!”

—Snake Elder, Donkey Kong Bananza

The Snake Bananza is a Bananza that Donkey Kong can activate in Donkey Kong Bananza to transform into a large snake, granting him enhanced abilities such as a Charge Jump which increases jump height, or Glare which causes surroundings to enter slow motion. Similarly to the Zebra Bananza, it also allows traversal over crumbly bridges. It is the fifth and final of the Bananzas learned in the game, and is learned from the Snake Elder in the Radiance Layer. Its abilities are similar to those of Rattly from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest.
