'''Acks'''<ref>Michael Knight, ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Game Guide. Page 26</ref> are red enemies with sharp teeth that first appeared in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]''. They are found in the fifth level in the [[Ruins]] world, [[Itty Bitty Biters]]. They are related to [[Toothberry|Toothberries]], [[AckStack]]s and [[Cageberry|Cageberries]]. Acks are more aggressive and bigger than normal Toothberries. They also require two [[jump]]s to be defeated, while Toothberries only require one. Alternatively, a [[Kong Roll]] will destroy one with a single hit. To attack the [[Kong]]s, Acks attempt to jump on them. Their jump is the highest out of all their relatives. If [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] make contact with these biters, they will lose a heart. Acks also appear in the [[Forest (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Forest]] level, [[Clingy Swingy]].
