Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble

In Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble, Ellie can pull barrels in from distance and carry them with her trunk; she can also to collect water in her trunk and shoot it at enemies. She is extremely afraid of mice and will run whenever she sees one, which is a reference to the real world where elephants have been shown to be negatively conscious of mice; the "Stampede Sprint" level in the secret world Krematoa centers around Ellie running uncontrollably after coming upon a trio of mice. Ellie is one of three Animal Friends to fight a boss; she battles the waterfall monster Squirt in Cotton-Top Cove.
