Crocodile Cauldron

Crocodile Cauldron is the volcanic mountain range of Crocodile Isle and the second world of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. It has Kleever as the world boss. In Donkey Kong Land 2, Crocodile Cauldron does not appear as a standalone world and was combined with Krem Quay to form the world Krem Cauldron.

Crocodile Cauldron has several rivers of lava, large pitfalls, and a prominent at the top. The world appears to be encased in a cave carved in the shape of a giant Kremling skull, which has glowing, red eyes, and steam coming out from the nostrils. Aside from volcanic areas, Crocodile Cauldron features a few mine shafts, which the Kremling Krew would excavate gems and minerals from. There is also a large, broken galleon which is partially submerged in the lava. Water also seems to flow through Crocodile Cauldron, or there is at least a large deposit of it underground, as the ship remains are flooded with it. Three levels take place at a volcanic area (one of which is the boss battle), two levels take place in mine shafts, and one level takes place in the broken galleon. The Game Boy Advance version of the map, notably, has more solid ground that can be traversed.

In the ending, Crocodile Cauldron and the rest of Crocodile Isle sinks into the ocean.

According to the Player's Guide, the lava pools from Crocodile Cauldron are the Kremlings' source of heat and power in Crocodile Isle.
