'''Flurl''' (known as '''Ressar''' in the European [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]] version) is a [[Jungle Buddy]] of [[Donkey Kong]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'', who first appears in [[Jungle Deeps]]. Flurl is a large red squirrel with a giant tail, and its name is a combination of "float" and "squirrel". While usually only one can be seen at a time, two appear on-screen at one point in [[Ninjape Rally]].

Flurl can occasionally be found sleeping in a tree. If Donkey Kong grabs Flurl's tail, he will use Flurl like a parachute and glide through the air, which allows Donkey Kong to collect airborne beats and reach new areas that are normally unreachable without the rodent's aid.
 
Flurl's first appearance is in the level [[Jungle Deeps]].

Flurl occasionally appears sleeping in a tree. If Donkey Kong grabs Flurl's tail, he can use Flurl as parachute and glide through the air. This allows Donkey Kong to collect some [[Banana#Donkey Kong Jungle Beat|Beat]]s while airborne and access normally unreachable areas.
