'''Kongs''' (also known as the '''Apes''' in production literature for the [[Donkey Kong Country (television series)|''Donkey Kong Country'' television series]])<ref>''Computer Animation: A Whole New World'' (1998, Rockport Publishers). "''Medialab'' Donkey Kong Country". P. 87</ref> are sapient primates that make up much of the cast of the ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]'' franchise, with the [[Donkey Kong|eponymous character]] himself being one. They are capable of actions such as speech and building houses and typically wear clothing, though the amount varies drastically with the individual, with Donkey Kong himself wearing only a tie, while many others wear full outfits. They seem to be native to [[Donkey Kong Island]], and they share an animosity with much of the crocodilian [[Kremling]] race. While most of them share the surname "Kong," they are not all directly related to one another. Kongs can resemble any number of real-life primates, with Donkey Kong, [[Funky Kong]], and several others being gorillas; [[Diddy Kong]] being a monkey, [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Tiny Kong]] being chimpanzees; and [[Lanky Kong]] being an orangutan.
