Klampon

Klampons are enemies from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. They appear as blue and red-spotted crocodiles with small bodies, big heads and jaws, and bulging eyes. They are relatives of Klaptraps from Donkey Kong Country. Indeed they bear an extreme resemblance to each other, although the Klampon is a bit larger than a Klaptrap. Both enemies share the same way of attack, and are invulnerable to a frontal attack as well as an attack from behind. However a stomp will take care of them. Sometimes Klampons appear with their functional opposites (weak to frontal attacks but immune to jump attacks), the Spinies. This makes it harder to defeat the group of enemies, as defeating one may accidentally lead to being hurt by the other.

Trivia

 * According to the game's credits, Klampons belong to the "Kremling Kuthroats" enemy class.
