'''Frogoons'''<ref>"Critters 1 Gallery" in the "Extras" section of ''Donkey Kong Country Returns''.</ref> are creatures in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. They are green [[frog]] enemies that follow the bidding of the [[Tiki Tak Tribe]]. Frogoons hinder the [[Kong]]s with attacks that involve jumping up and down in place. They can jump higher than usual by inflating their bodies. [[Donkey Kong]] can easily subdue Frogoons by [[jump]]ing on top of them, causing them to deflate. Frogoons frequently appear close to each other in groups allowing Donkey Kong to defeat all of them in one attack. If one looks closely, one can see that Frogoons sometimes try to catch and eat a small fly in-between jumps. A yellow variant called [[Hopgoon]] also appears in the game.
'''Frogoons'''<ref>"Critters 1 Gallery" in the "Extras" section of ''Donkey Kong Country Returns''.</ref> are green [[frog]]s and enemies that appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. Frogoons repeatedly jump up and down in one place. They can inflate their body while in midair to hover up slightly higher. [[Donkey Kong]] can easily subdue Frogoons by [[jump]]ing on top of them, causing them to deflate and blow away offscreen. Frogoons often appear together in groups. If one looks closely, one can see that Frogoons sometimes try to catch and eat a small fly in-between jumps. They also have a yellow variant named [[Hopgoon]].


In ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', Frogoons appear as obstacles on [[DK Jungle (3DS)|DK Jungle]], which returns as a retro course in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. Here, they do not inflate at all, and only jump across the road, thus acting like Hopgoons. They cause racers to spin out and lose three [[coin]]s if bumped into, but can be temporarily repelled with offensive items such as [[Green Shell]]s. Frogoons make two consecutive jumps before turning the other way in ''Mario Kart 7'', while in the latter two games, they only jump once.

Frogoons do not appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' although a grasshopper enemy, [[Punchy Paddy]], behaves very similarly to Frogoons.
