In their debut appearance, Lockjaws appear in most underwater levels. When [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] approach a Lockjaw, it clamps its jaws and then lunges at the lead [[Kong]] in an attempt to bite them. Lockjaws can only be defeated by [[Enguarde the Swordfish]] by stabbing them. The Lockjaws in the later levels often move faster than in earlier levels.
