Puffton

Pufftons are common enemies appearing in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. They are large, purple owls with a mustache and wear a sash with the Snowmad's symbol. Pufftons function similarly to the Tiki Torks from Donkey Kong Country Returns and its Nintendo 3DS remake. There are stronger versions called Tufftons.

Pufftons do not attack the Kongs, but simply fly in place. They can be defeated by jumping on them three times or by throwing another enemy or barrel at them.
