When the [[Kong]]s enter inside the owl-shaped lair, they see Hootzes gather around their leader Skowl, who is hidden in the shadows. After a Hootz throws a banana on a stone slab, Skowl smashes it with his hammer. The Kongs react by yelling in shock, which gains the attention of Skowl and the Hootzes. Skowl reveals himself in the light and angrily hoots at the Kongs. The Kongs then break the stone slab, scaring away the Hootzes except for their leader, thus triggering the start of the boss fight. | When the [[Kong]]s enter inside the owl-shaped lair, they see Hootzes gather around their leader Skowl, who is hidden in the shadows.

Initially, Skowl's attacks are limited to shooting a wide fan of feather missiles and summoning eggs down onto the arena. These eggs damage the Kongs if they hit them from below. Some of these eggs contain small [[Hootz]]es, which can be jumped on and used as projectiles against Skowl. Skowl also turns his wings to ice and sends out huge [[Icy Spike Ball| Ice Spike Balls]] to the opposite end of the platform. The icy spike balls continues to roll in a direction until falling off the platform. | Initially, Skowl's attacks are limited to shooting a wide fan of feather missiles and summoning eggs down onto the arena.

At some points of the battle, Skowl will descend from the air from one side of the arena and try to ram into the Kongs. | ||
In the latter two phases of the battle, each in a different area of the boss level, Skowl uses more attacks. This includes creating a windstorm by flapping his wings, shooting sets of feather projectiles and calling in fleets of flying Hootz with viking helmets to swoop onto the platform at the Kongs while still using some of his previous attacks. Near the end of the battle, Skowl sends large eggs from the sky onto the arena, each one containing three Hootzes, and Skowl appearing inside the fifth large egg. | In the latter two phases of the battle, each in a different area of the boss level, Skowl uses more attacks.

To attack Skowl, Donkey Kong must jump on a baby Hootz to flip it over and pick it up. He must then throw it at Skowl to damage him. To hit Skowl an eighth time, Donkey Kong must wait until Skowl falls out his large egg. Skowl will then lose his viking helmet and be temporarily stunned, which will allow Donkey Kong to jump on its head and damage him. Skowl gets defeated after taking nine hits in total. | To attack Skowl, Donkey Kong must jump on a baby Hootz to flip it over and pick it up.
