They are introduced in [[World 3-4 (Super Mario Bros. Special)|World 3-4]] and continue to appear occasionally throughout the game. Tarusars retain their physics from ''Donkey Kong'', in that they roll continuously towards Mario. Their source is not seen, but they always fall from a certain height onto the ground before they start rolling. [[Mario]] cannot destroy Tarusars with a [[stomp]] or fireballs, but he can use a [[Hammer|Hummer]] to destroy them in World 3-4. They can also be beaten by punching them from beneath a [[Brick Block|brick]]. | ||

''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' introduces several types of barrels that the [[Kong]]s can use to attack enemies. Regular barrels appear frequently in many levels throughout the game and can be picked up and carried by pressing the {{button|snes|Y}} button on the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] controller while the playable character is in front of the barrel. Donkey Kong lifts the barrel above his head, while [[Diddy Kong]] carries it in front of his body. The barrel can then be tossed by releasing the {{button|snes|Y}} button, after which it rolls on the ground ahead until it hits a wall or goes off-camera. Barrels can also phase through enemies and defeat them, although touching an enemy with a barrel while carrying it will result in the barrel breaking as well as the enemy being taken out. In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'', barrels can break if they collide with an enemy while rolling. Regular barrels are needed to destroy tough or well-protected enemies, including [[Zinger]]s and [[Krusha]]s, and are sometimes needed to take down bosses, such as [[Queen B.]], [[Kreepy Krow]] or [[King K. Rool#Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!|Baron K. Roolenstein]]. During boss battles, there are specific methods of acquiring barrels: they can either spawn repeatedly without the player's input, appear after defeating a living [[Mini-Necky]], or fall from the ceiling after the player pulls some pipes. | ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' introduces several types of barrels that the [[Kong]]s can use to attack enemies.

During [[Lanky Kong]]'s round in the final boss fight against [[King K. Rool]], he must reach for one of the barrels, each depicting a small banana peel on its side, and throw it on the ground. Doing so reveals a large banana peel, which Lanky can trick K. Rool into running on by playing [[Trombone Tremor]] at the opposite side of K. Rool. | During [[Lanky Kong]]'s round in the final boss fight against [[King K.
