Mekanos

Mekanos is an island filled with large factories and pipelines and one of the Northern Kremisphere's many areas ventured through in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble.

Bramble tells Dixie Kong and Kiddy Kong that Mekanos was once a beautiful island filled with plant and animal life, but after the Kremling Krew invaded the Northern Kremisphere they built machines and factories over it. It is similar to Kremkroc Industries, Inc. in that Mekanos a heavily polluted industrial area, but considering its location in the Northern Kremisphere, it is more liquid-/forest-based, with many warehouses and pipelines and a logging area included instead of mines and what may be steel factories.

When the Kongs venture to Mekanos, they have to travel through the island's many warehouses, slide through a drainage pipe system, travel through what was left of Mekanos's giant trees while they are being cut down, and go through another pipe system, seeming to be a gas pipeline with drastically-reduced gravity. After traveling through all this, the Kongs have to face the Kremling Krew's new master, KAOS, in a scary-looking Krem Co. factory.

Bazooka is found on Mekanos; the Kongs require his assistance, and a Bowling Ball to find Mekanos's Banana Bird Cave, which was elevated by a large claw for unknown reasons.

After KAOS is defeated, all of Mekanos's factories are shut down, and the pollution from the air ducts finally ends. Bramble Bear hopes that this will one day cause all the plant and animal life to return to Mekanos.

Mekanos is the only area the owl-like enemy Karbine can be found in. This may mean they were once an exclusive animal species living there that were all taken in by the Kremlings during the takeover of Mekanos.
