Sneek

Sneek are the Donkey Kong Country 3 and Donkey Kong Land III equivalent of the Neek, being exactly like that enemy. Ellie the Elephant, in classic cartoonish form, will get spooked if she sees one, causing her to run in panic (an entire Krematoa level centers around this). In the game's semi-sequel, Donkey Kong Land III, Ellie seems to have overcome this fear.
