Coco Pig

Cocopī (ココピー ) are a species of pig-like creatures in Donkey Kong Jungle Beat.

They reside on Palm trees and serve as a mini-boss in the game. When Donkey Kong confronts a Cocopī, it will hurl coconuts and chestnuts at him from the tree. If one of the projectiles hits him, Donkey Kong will lose beats (a heart in the New Play Control! version). Donkey Kong can deflect the objects with his Sound Wave Attack, punching one back at the palm tree. Once the tree is hit three times, it breaks apart and the Cocopī is defeated, leaving behind five bananas.

Cocopī first appear at end of the second level of Watermelon Kingdom, Desert Oasis and later appear in Cactus Mine and Asteroid Belt. Two Cocopī appear in both Aurora Glacier, and Magma Coliseum.

Trivia

 * Cocopī appears as an unused model under the name CocoPig in Super Mario Galaxy.
