'''Jungle Hijinxs''' is the first level of ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. It is located within the [[Jungle (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Jungle]] area of [[Donkey Kong Island]]. Similar to the Jungle Hijinxs from the first ''Donkey Kong Country'', this stage is rather basic, with very few pits.

In the [[Donkey Kong Country Returns#Time Attack|Time Attack]] mode, a time of 0:57:00 is required to get a gold medal, a time of 1:17:00 for silver, and a time of 1:40:00 for bronze.

The level begins with a view of [[DK's Tree House|the treehouse]], where [[Donkey Kong]] must beat up the [[Tiki Tak Tribe|Kalimba Tiki]]. The player can do so by shaking the Wii Remote (or by repeatedly pressing {{button|3DS|X}} or {{button|3DS|Y}} in the 3DS remake). After this, Donkey Kong beats his chest and jumps to the ground. He has an option to enter his tree house or empty [[banana hoard]], the former having a [[Red Balloon]] and a TV that can be turned on with a [[Ground Pound]] to reveal the game's title screen on it, and the latter having a [[Puzzle Piece (Donkey Kong Country series)|Puzzle Piece]] and a [[Banana Coin]] which can be obtained by [[blow]]ing at a dandelion. By traveling along the sandy pathway, Donkey Kong heads into a deeper part of the jungle, where he finds an Awk near a breakable stone block. A dandelion and three more Awks appear afterward. Donkey Kong can walk onto a few treetops above, and the rightmost of them has the [[K-O-N-G Letters|Letter K]]. A few more stone blocks appear after the trees, with a [[Tiki Goon]] walking between the second and third ones. After this, Donkey Kong encounters two pairs of [[Screaming Pillar]]s: he can avoid the first pair by standing in the middle of them or running past, whereas the second pair features a Screaming Pillar atop another. Donkey Kong must wait for them to crash onto each other before he can pass. Donkey Kong can jump up and collect a [[Banana|Banana Bunch]] and walk down on a wooden bridge.

As he crosses the bridge, the player can see the [[Tiki Pilot]] on a flying ship in the background, with all the stolen Bananas from the banana hoard. It flies away shortly afterward. Donkey Kong can optionally [[Hand Slap]] onto a stone tile to enter a hidden area with a [[Heart]], some [[Banana]]s and a Banana Coin below. He must pass two more Awks and three plants (one of them being a dandelion) each containing an item. Shortly after, Donkey Kong can find two Frogoons followed by a large, bouncy flower located between two [[Mugly]] statues. By bouncing on the flower, the Statues begin to shoot out many bananas. After passing another Frogoon on a slightly elevated ground patch, Donkey Kong can find a pit leading to an Awk and a series of three raised platforms. Two of the platforms float slightly below the upper one, and the lower ones are smaller and have a gap between them. Donkey Kong can quickly collect a [[Red Balloon]] to the left of the bottom-left platform. Each of the three platforms have three Bananas on them, and the bottom-right one also has a Tiki Goon. Donkey Kong can alternatively go below the platforms and perform a roll jump above a pit and collect the letter O above it. Donkey Kong can find the checkpoint directly afterwards.

|Floating above a pit right before the checkpoint. The Kongs can only obtain it by performing a roll jump.

|After completing the first Bonus Area, the Kongs must continue a bit farther until reaching a stone platform just before the three [[Rawk]]s. They must jump on the platform, then to the right onto the next platform, and collect the letter G floating in the air.

|Shortly after the flying ship comes into view, the Kongs must ground pound a large gourd, which is positioned between two smaller ones, for the fourth Puzzle Piece.

|Near the end of the level, the Kongs must go on a stone platform preceding the Rawk trio. By continuing left, the Kongs must jump from a treetop and three more platforms. The leftmost platform has the Puzzle Piece.
