Cranky Kong's Great-Grandfather

Cranky Kong's Grandfather is a grandfather of Cranky Kong's, who was briefly mentioned by Bazaar in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. Due to Cranky's old age, it can be assumed that his grandfather died a long time ago.

When Dixie or Kiddy Kong inquire about the Mirror that Bazaar is selling for fifty Bear Coins, Bazaar will mention that it belonged to Cranky Kong's grandfather, and that he can't let it go for a lower price, for it is an antique. Aside from this, no mention of Cranky's grandfather has ever been made, meaning that whether or not the grandfather was maternal or paternal is unknown.
