In ''Donkey Kong Country'', Kongo Jungle is the first world. Most of the area is engulfed in a jungle, but there is a long cavern about midway through. The cavern's exit leads to the second half of Kongo Jungle, which itself directly leads to a large lake. The original [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] release shows two halves of Kongo Jungle in separate screens. | In ''Donkey Kong Country'', Kongo Jungle is the first world.
