Re-Koil

Re-Koils are members of the Kremling Krew and are common enemies in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble and Donkey Kong Land III. Re-Koils are orange Kremlings with yellow bellies and wear no form of clothing. They always seem to have a stupid grin on their face and are sometimes seen with their tongue hanging out; also their eyes perpetually stare in different directions, which may imply that they suffer from divergent strabismus. Re-Koils usually try to attack the Kongs by bouncing on their tails and trying to land on them, although some Re-Koils will only bounce up and down in one spot. Since defeating them with a jump requires a good timing, it is actually easier to attack them with a cartwheel when they land on the ground. Re-Koils replace the jumping Kritters from Donkey Kong Country and the Kaboings from ''Donkey Kong Country 2.
