Noticeably, this level features several groups of [[banana]]s that form letters. These letters indicate the button that the player must push to perform certain actions with Ellie. For example, in the Super Nintendo Entertainment System version of the game, Ellie encounters a group of bananas that form the shape of the letter Y, meaning that the player must hit the Y button to make the elephant perform an action that she can use to progress through that part of the level.

The Kongs begin the level near a long ledge that they must drop down to in order to find a [[DK Barrel]] and a Booty Bird that hovers over a red Buzz. If they defeat the Booty Bird, the enemy drops a [[TNT Barrel]] on the Buzz below it, who guards the [[K-O-N-G Letters|letter K]]. The primates can find a small pool of water with a Nibbla in it ahead of here, and an [[Auto Fire Barrel]] is above it. The barrel can blast them on top of a tall area of land with an [[Animal Barrel]] on the edge of it. When the barrel is entered, the Kongs are turned into Ellie the Elephant, who must continue down a few ledges farther ahead of here to reach some Krimps and another small pool of water with a Nibbla in it. Ellie can cross the water without falling into it by using the two barrels that float on top of it. A green Buzz guards one of the barrels, and a group of bananas is behind it that form the letters L and R (or, in the Game Boy Advance version, the letter R alone). After Ellie crosses the water, she reaches a few bananas with the letter O among them. An area of water is ahead of here with a Nibbla and a [[Steel Keg|steel keg]] in it. The steel keg can only help Ellie cross a portion of the water, but if she defeats a nearby Booty Bird, who flies over the other half of the water, it drops another steel keg that can be used to cross in the water. Immediately after passing this area of water, the pachyderm encounters another pool of water with a Booty Bird and a red Buzz guarding a [[Bonus Barrel]] above it. The water can be crossed with the use of a nearby Auto Fire Barrel. Once Ellie heads down the path following the water, she reaches an additional area of water that contains a Nibbla and two floating barrels, which the elephant can use to cross. However, a green Buzz hovers over the barrels.

|Ellie comes up to a Steel Barrel and a Koin in possession of a [[DK Coin]] immediately before she reaches the level's Star Barrel. She must defeat him to earn the coin, however, none of her attacks can actually defeat him. So, she must use the nearby steel kegs to attack. If she stands on the foe with the barrel, the Koin puts its attention on her. At that time, the elephant must throw the barrel at the nearest wall. The barrel should bounce back, hit the enemy, and defeat him for the DK Coin.

{|class="dktable-brown"
*Shortly after passing the letter O, Ellie shoots over a body of water through an Auto Fire Barrel. If she turns around once she gets on land, she can find a Booty Bird above a red Buzz, who guards a [[Bonus Barrel]]. She should hit the Booty Bird with her water shooting ability to make it flee and drop a TNT Barrel on the Buzz hovering below it. With both foes defeated, the she can find a clear path to the Bonus Barrel, which she must enter to reach a [[Bonus Level]]. Here, she needs to throw some barrels into the water to create a pathway over a small lake. A Nibbla can attack her if she touches the water, and if it touches her, she is forced out of the bonus. On the other side of the lake, the hero can find a [[Bonus Coin]]. Ellie has a total of 25 seconds to complete this Bonus Level and grab the Bonus Coin.

*Not too long after passing the letter N, Ellie enters a safe pool of water with a Bonus Barrel at the bottom of it. However, she is unable to swim underwater, so she has no way of getting to it at the time. To reach it, the hero must head slightly father to the right and out of the water to meet some Knik-Knaks walking on land. She should not defeat them, and simply just wait for them to take flight over the pool of water found before. Once they stop in mid-air, she should bounce on them and head above the underwater Bonus Barrel while airborne. The elephant can then land in the water and be forced down into the barrel. This special barrel can take her into a Bonus Level, where she needs to cross another area of water with some floating barrels while collecting stars. If she collects all 10 stars within 15 seconds, she can find a Bonus Coin at the other side of the water to grab within the remaining time. During the Bonus Level, a Nibbla swims through the water, and if it touches her, she fails the bonus.

===Warp Barrel===
===Warp Barrel===
*When the Kongs reach the first Booty Bird in the level, who is located before Ellie's Animal Barrel, they should use their [[Team-up]] move to throw one another into the air to the right of the enemy. They can find a hidden [[Warp Barrel]] near this foe, and the barrel can send them to to the Level Flag at the end of the level.
