Klingers are orange-skinned, yellow-bellied Kremlings with a long, scaly tail. They wear a green, white-spotted head bandana and a matching loincloth around the waist. Klingers (aside from [[Klobber]]s) are among the few Kremlings to have ears, in which they have a hoop earring for each one. Klingers have clawed toes but their fingers do not. Their artwork also depicts them having a large dagger in their mouth, though it does not appear in-game. | Klingers are orange-skinned, yellow-bellied Kremlings with a long, scaly tail.

In ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', Klingers first appear in [[Mainbrace Mayhem (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Mainbrace Mayhem]]. They repeatedly climb up a rope or another object, such as a chain, before sliding down. They usually make it harder for [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] to go across the ropes, which is mostly noticeable in [[Chain Link Chamber]] where Klingers appear as the main enemy. In [[Krockhead Klamber (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Krockhead Klamber]], the Klingers are climbing on cattails. | |||
Like with other enemies, the player loses the lead [[Kong]] if they hit a Klinger. [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] can defeat Klingers by throwing objects at them, including [[barrel]]s, [[kannonball]]s, or [[crate]]s. This causes the affected Klingers to fall off the rope. | Like with other enemies, the player loses the lead [[Kong]] if they hit a Klinger.

In ''Donkey Kong Land 2'', Klingers also make their level debut in the game's [[Mainbrace Mayhem (Donkey Kong Land 2)|Mainbrace Mayhem]] counterpart. Diddy or Dixie can now defeat a Klinger if they are on intersecting ropes by moving horizontally into the Klinger if it is right next to them. | |||

In ''[[Donkey Konga 2]]'', Klinger's artwork sometimes displays on screen in Freestyle Zone in correspondence to the player hitting the [[Nintendo GameCube#DK Bongos|DK Bongos]]. | |||
