In ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and [[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D|its enhanced port]], Screaming Pillars can be encountered throughout the [[Jungle (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Jungle]], [[Ruins]], and [[Volcano]] areas, and are initially seen idle. If the [[Kong]]s approach these pillars, they awake with a scream and collapse onto the ground, potentially crushing any creature standing beneath them, including the Kongs; their feathers also fall off during their sudden awakening. Should a pillar fall onto the Kongs, they lose one heart from their health counter. The Kongs can destroy a Screaming Pillar by [[Hand Slap|ground pound]]ing its feeble head after it fell on the ground. Sometimes, Screaming Pillars might give out precious items, such as [[Banana Coin]]s or even [[Puzzle Piece (Donkey Kong Country series)|Puzzle Piece]]s, after getting destroyed. | In ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and [[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D|its enhanced port]], Screaming Pillars can be encountered throughout the [[Jungle (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Jungle]], [[Ruins]], and [[Volcano]] areas, and are initially seen idle.

''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 26.</ref>, return in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. When awakened, they expel flames out of their eyes and mouth before falling to the ground. Like in the previous game, they are able to crush the [[Kong]]s as they fall, but can be destroyed with three [[Hand Slap|Ground Pound]]s once they hit the ground. They only appear in [[Scorch 'n' Torch]], where at one point a Flaming Falling Totem Pole falls on and crushes a stationary fire [[Archy (fire)|Archy]], showing a capability to damage enemies as well as the Kongs. | Screaming Pillars, now referred to as '''Flaming Falling Totem Poles''' in the [[Prima Games|Prima]] guide<ref>von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier.
