Mama Saws[1] are fish enemies appearing in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. Their appearance is inspired from the real-life sawfish, as each Mama Saw displays a narrow spiky nose extension, resembling a saw – hence the species' name. They have flattended body structures, which are orange-colored, as well as striped with discrete shades of the said color. In particular, two lightly-tinted circular strokes surround their eyes.
Mama Saws swim lazily from side to side, turning around when they reach a certain point in their traversed distance. With their spiky noses, they can thrust the Kongs and damage them, taking away one heart from the heroes' health meter. The Kongs can be damaged anyway if they come into sheer contact with a Mama Saw from any of its sides. Nonetheless, the Kongs can ram into its rear side by performing a corkscrew move; as a result, the Mama Saw gets defeated. Although this combat move is futile againt their armed frontal areas, Mama Saws can be alternatively taken out with Cranky's cane swipe from anywhere.
Sea Breeze Cove is the habitat of a large number of Mama Saws. Particularly, they can be encountered in levels such as Irate Eight, Rockin' Relics and Shoal Atoll, where they always patrol underwater areas. Mama Saws are sometimes strategically arranged in defensive rows, and move simultaneously with the other companions.
