Stampede Sprint is the last jungle level, and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong|Kiddy]] play as [[Ellie the Elephant]] for a majority of the level. An [[Animal Crate]] of [[Parry the Parallel Bird]] is nearby, and Parry can help collecting items in midair such as [[banana]]s and [[Bear Coin]]s. [[Squawks the Parrot|Squawks]] and [[Squitter the Spider|Squitter]] briefly appear in two respective [[Bonus Level]]s at the start. After blasting to the next platform, Ellie encounters three [[Sneek]]s, causing her to freak out and run across the level uncontrollably. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, Ellie runs a bit slower.

As Ellie runs uncontrollably, the player cannot control her movement except for her jumps. Due to her fast movements, Ellie has little time to anticipate incoming enemies or obstacles. Throughout the level, Ellie has to jump over abysses and avoid various enemies in the jungle, including [[Bristles]], [[Buzz (enemy)|Buzz]]es, [[Kuff 'n' Klout]] (in their debut), and [[Krimp]]s. Buzzes are usually out of reach but still harm Parry upon contact. If Parry crosses the [[No Animal Sign]] at the end, it turns into a one-chance [[Bonus Barrel]]. Similarly, if Ellie passes her No Animal Sign, she transforms into a [[Steel Barrel]], which is needed to defeat [[Koin]] beyond the [[Level Flag]].

|At the end of the level, Ellie crosses the No Animal Sign to turn herself back into the Kongs. Ellie then transforms into a [[Steel Barrel]]. The Kongs must jump and throw the Steel Keg over the nearby [[Koin]] for it to rebound off the wall to the right and hit him in the back. Koin is defeated and the Kongs are rewarded the [[DK Coin]].

*The [[Super Nintendo]] version of Stampede Sprint features the normal "Hot Pursuit" music for the entire stage, while the Game Boy Advance version features its own music for the rushing Ellie part of the level (which is also heard when the [[Banana Bird Queen]] is chasing [[King K. Rool]] in the alternative ending of the game), and uses a unique track called "Jungle Ambience" (which sounds similar, but not identical, to the ambience at the beginning of the GBA "Jungle Jitter" theme) at the beginning and end.
