In their debut appearance, Klumps first appear in the very first level, [[Jungle Hijinxs (Donkey Kong Country)|Jungle Hijinxs]], and also appear in [[Torchlight Trouble]], [[Trick Track Trek]], [[Elevator Antics]], [[Blackout Basement]], and lastly [[Platform Perils]]. Klumps wear a helmet that protect them from [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]]'s [[jump]]ing attack, but it still pushes back a Klump slightly. Despite their strength, Klumps can otherwise be defeated from any attack, including from having a [[barrel]] thrown at them, [[Rambi the Rhino]], [[roll]]ing/[[cartwheel]]ing into them, or from [[Donkey Kong]] jumping on them. In [[Gang-Plank Galleon]]'s fake ending credits, Klump is credited for doing the game's "KONCEPT".  
Klumps wear a helmet that protect them from [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]]'s [[jump]]ing attack, but it still pushes back a Klump slightly. Despite their strength, Klumps can defeated from most attacks, including from a [[barrel]], [[Rambi]], being [[roll]]ed or [[Cartwheel Attack|cartwheeled]] into by [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]], respectively, or from Donkey Kong jumping on them. In [[Gang-Plank Galleon]]'s fake ending credits, Klump is credited for doing the game's "KONCEPT".

Before appearing in levels, a Klump is first seen in the [[DK Rap]], where during Chunky's verse, Chunky scares it away, and the DK Rap is also abruptly ended by the Klump throwing an orange at the screen. In game's intro cutscene, K. Rool orders a Klump, a [[Kritter]] and a [[Kasplat]] to imprison Donkey Kong's friends and steal the [[banana hoard]]. As Klump rushes into K. Rool's throne room, it accidentally knocks the Kritter and Kasplat out of the way. The Klump explains it and the other [[Kremling]]s have "already taken care of business" and shows that [[Chunky Kong|Chunky]], [[Lanky Kong|Lanky]], [[Tiny Kong|Tiny]], and [[Diddy Kong]] have been imprisoned. K. Rool overrules Klump by hoping that it is right about taking care of business.
