The '''Kremlings''' (also known as the '''Reptiles'''<ref>''Computer Animation: A Whole New World'' (1998, Rockport Publishers). "''Medialab'' Donkey Kong Country". p. 89</ref> and '''Crocodiles'''<ref>''Computer Animation: A Whole New World'' (1998, Rockport Publishers). "''Medialab'' Donkey Kong Country". p. 87</ref> in production literature for the [[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' television series]]) are a race of crocodilians who appear in the [[Donkey Kong (franchise)|''Donkey Kong'']] franchise. They first appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', where they steal [[Donkey Kong]]'s prized [[banana hoard]]. Kremlings come in many different varieties and most of them have names that begin with the letter "K" (to the point where some names use real words beginning with "C" with the initial replaced with "K", such as [[Kalypso]] instead of "Calpyso") Most Kremlings are part of the [[Kremling Krew]] (with [[K. Lumsy]] being a notable exception). Kremlings also made a few appearances in various sports titles in the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise; they are seen in the background of the [[DK Jungle Court]] in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'' and take on the role of goalies in ''[[Super Mario Strikers]]'' and ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]'', while in ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'', they appear as team players.

In ''Mario Super Sluggers'' Challenge Mode the Kritters along with King K Rool do not speak in animal noises unlike the Kongs implying that the Kremlings are capable of speaking the human language.

The Kremlings seem to be a marauding and conquering race, as evidenced by their thievery, kidnapping, take-over of the [[Northern Kremisphere]], and most commonly piracy, as shown in the events of ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', by their frequent usage of pirate ships such as [[Gangplank Galleon]], possession of [[treasure chest]]s and valuables, and the Kremling Krew emblem. It is also possible that they showed similar sides in the unseen [[Kremean War]], which they are assumed to have fought in.
