They are identifiable from the red-and-yellow "[[Donkey Kong|DK]]" letters on their sides. If two [[Kong]]s are together and the lead one is hit by an enemy or an obstacle, that Kong runs away; the player takes control of the other Kong. When a Kong finds a DK Barrel, they can pick it up and throw it to reunite with the other Kong. | ||

In the backstory for ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', Diddy was ambushed by [[Kremling]]s while he was guarding the [[banana hoard]]. He is sealed into a DK Barrel and thrown into the jungle. The first DK Barrel of [[Jungle Hijinxs (Donkey Kong Country)|Jungle Hijinxs]] is presumably the one that Diddy was trapped into due to it being the closest DK Barrel to the banana hoard. | In the backstory for ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', Diddy was ambushed by [[Kremling]]s while he was guarding the [[banana hoard]].

Certain [[Cheat code#Donkey Kong franchise|cheat codes]] in the sequels can affect the availability of DK Barrels.

In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', the HARDR cheat only removes some of the DK Barrels, and the TUSFT cheat removes all DK Barrels (if used on a new save file) and Star Barrels; in the Game Boy Advance version, the TUFFER cheat removes all DK Barrels and Star Barrels on a new game save file. In all applicable games, if DK Barrels are disabled, every level automatically starts with both Kongs. | Certain [[Cheat code#Donkey Kong franchise|cheat codes]] in the sequels can affect the availability of DK Barrels.
