'''Re-Koils''' are orange [[Kremling]]s with a springy tail. Re-Koils always stick their tongue out and have their eyes point in opposite directions. Re-Koils have four fingers and three toes, and they are one of the few Kremlings with claws on their hands. They have a yellow belly, and the front of their tail is also yellow. Re-Koils first appear as enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and return in ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. They are the successors to jumping [[Kritter]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' and [[Kaboing]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''. | |||

In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', Re-Koils continuously bounce on their tail. They usually bounce either in one spot or back and forth, though starting in [[Krack Shot Kroc]], some bounce continuously in one direction. Some Re-Koils bounce on their tail without getting off the ground. If a Re-Koil lands on [[Dixie Kong]] or [[Kiddy Kong]], that [[Kong]] gets injured. The Kongs can defeat a Re-Koil by either [[Roll Attack|roll]]ing into it just before it lands, jumping onto it, or hitting the Re-Koil with a [[barrel]]. Due to their high-bouncing ability, the Kongs can sometimes use Re-Koils to reach higher areas or out-of-reach items. | In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', Re-Koils continuously bounce on their tail.

Re-Koils give the same sound effect from being defeated as [[Krook]]s, [[Klinger]]s, and [[Kloak]]s, although not in the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]]. Due to their high-bouncing ability, the Kongs can sometimes use Re-Koils to reach higher areas or out-of-reach items. A photograph of a Re-Koil appears in [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]], in which it is classified as part of the [[Kremling Kreeps]]. | ||
Re-Koils appear in eight levels, most of which take place in a mountain or inside a mill: | Re-Koils appear in eight levels, most of which take place in a mountain or inside a mill: | ||
