Kongo Jungle

The Kongo Jungle is a vast jungle covering a large area of Donkey Kong Island, located at the foot of the Monkey Mountains. It is the first area in Donkey Kong Country, and is where Donkey Kong's house is located, as well as his precious Banana Hoard, which is often stolen by the Kremlings. The area is quite pleasent, possessing a vast amount of jungle and some rocky terrain. A large lake is also located in the area. The boss of Kongo Jungle is a giant Gnawty aptly named Very Gnawty.

The area where Donkey Kong's Treehouse is located in Donkey Kong 64 could possibly be either Kongo Jungle or a portion of it. Also the area Jungle Japes in Donkey Kong 64 has an extreme resemblance to Kongo Jungle.

Kongo Jungle (incorrectly spelt Congo Jungle) appears as one of the arenas in the game Super Smash Bros. The Kongo Jungle stage is made out of a large wooden platform with several smaller, sometimes floating ones around it. There is also a vast jungle in the backround of the arena and a Barrel Cannon underneath the arena.

In Super Smash Bros. sequel Super Smash Bros. Melee another Kongo Jungle stage was introduced. This Kongo Jungle stage is constucted out of logs strewn together which are sitting on rocks jutting out of a waterfall. In the backround of this stage is a vast jungle along with what appears to be Donkey Kong's Treehouse. Also in Super Smash Bros. Melee is the old version of Kongo Jungle (now correctly spelt) from the previous Super Smash Bros. game. The old version of Kongo Jungle can be unlocked by beating Fifteen-Minute Melee.

Trivia

 * The name Kongo Jungle is a play on words on the Congo Jungle in Africa, using a 'K' instead of a 'C' to imply that it is the home of the Kongs.
