'''Buzzbites''' | '''Buzzbites''' are insect-like enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. They inhabit several levels of the game, namely [[Jagged Jewels]], [[Vine Valley (level)|Vine Valley]], and [[Five Monkey Trial]]. Buzzbites rapidly rotate their legs around their stubby bodies in order to move along platforms, walls, and grassy layers. Their appearance is that of a violet colored beetle with cream and indigo striped legs. The ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] guide claims that Buzzbites are completely indestructible<ref>"''You can’t defeat them. Just jump over them, since they will cause harm if they touch you.''" Knight, Michael. ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Game Guide. Page 26.</ref>, whereas they can actually be defeated with a [[barrel]]. Buzzbites will harm [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] upon direct contact and drain a heart from their health counter, but can be avoided with a jump. | ||
[[Firebite]]s are an alternate version of Buzzbites that can only be encountered in [[Perilous Passage]]. Though they behave the same as Buzzbites, they also leave short fire trails behind them. | [[Firebite]]s are an alternate version of Buzzbites that can only be encountered in [[Perilous Passage]].
