In ''Donkey Kong Country'', Gnawties are one of the weakest enemies encountered by [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] on their journey, as they can be defeated from any attack, including being jumped on, rolled into, or having a [[barrel]] thrown at it. Gnawties have a brown-fur variant that moves around while standing in the center hole of a [[millstone]], somewhat similar to the functionality of a {{wp|hamster wheel}}. They only appear in two temple-themed levels, [[Millstone Mayhem]] and [[Temple Tempest]]. In contrast to regular Gnawties, this variant cannot be defeated because millstones are indestructible. Some millstone-riding Gnawties chase the Kongs down a path until they hit into a dead-end wall, while others move back and forth on a set path. Additionally, two of the game's bosses are Gnawties, [[Very Gnawty]] and [[Really Gnawty]], both of whom require more hits to defeat than a regular Gnawty and move around by hopping instead of walking. Very Gnawty is green gray and Really Gnawty is brown, reflecting the colors of both types of Gnawties.

Gnawties are differently colored in each remake. In the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Color)|Game Boy Color version]], the regular Gnawties are gray, although one is depicted green during the end credits, and the millstone-riding variant is red. Additionally, the millstone-riding Gnawties stand on top of the millstone rather than in the center. In the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], all Gnawties were recolored to gray, including the millstone-riding variant, and the colors of Very Gnawty and Really Gnawty were swapped, with the latter taking on a gray color.

[[File:Donkey Kong Jungle Millestone.png|thumb|The giant millstone in ''Mario Superstar Baseball'']]
*[[jiggywikki:Gnawty|Gnawty]] is also the name of a large brown beaver who appears in the ''[[jiggywikki:Banjo-Kazooie|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' level, [[jiggywikki:Click Clock Wood|Click Clock Wood]]. [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] can help Gnawty by destroying a large boulder that is blocking the entrance to his home. He appears to resemble [[Really Gnawty]] from ''Donkey Kong Country'' (or [[Very Gnawty]] in the later [[Game Boy Advance]] remake) in terms of size, height, and color.
