The '''Tiki Tak Tribe''' is an organization of wooden creatures called '''Tikis''', who appear as the main antagonists in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and its 3DS port ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. The tribe is led by [[Tiki Tong]], a huge tiki resembling a drum with a crown. Similar to the [[Kremling Krew]] from previous ''[[Donkey Kong Country (series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' installments, there are higher and lower-ranked members of the Tiki Tak Tribe. The higher-rank members are capable of hypnotizing living creatures, such as [[Donkey Kong Island]]'s wildlife and a boss in each world. The lower-rank members make up the recurring enemies throughout the levels. The Tiki Tak Tribe has a wooden mask for their emblem, as shown on the [[Snippys]]' ship's sails and their flags, bicorne, and image gallery icon.

Both the higher and lower-rank tikis resemble a musical instrument; all of the lower-ranked ones resemble a drum. The particular instrument that a higher ranked tiki resembles is played in the background music of the associated boss fight.

In the opening cutscene of ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' and ''Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D'', the tribe awakens from their centuries-long slumber within the [[volcano]] of Donkey Kong Island. Moments later, the seven high-ranked tikis hypnotize the animal inhabitants into stealing every banana in sight, including the [[banana hoard]]. One of the commanders, Kalimba, encounters [[Donkey Kong]] and unsuccessfully tries to hypnotize him. Donkey Kong then punches Kalimba out of [[DK's Treehouse|his house]] and begins his quest to reclaim his bananas and save the island from the new threat.
In the opening cutscene of ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' and ''Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D'', when the giant [[Tiki Tong Tower]] rises out from the volcano of [[Donkey Kong Island]], it erupts and the tikis emerge from the rocks blasted out of the volcano. Moments later, the seven high-ranked tikis hypnotize the animal inhabitants and control them to steal the [[banana hoard]] supply. One of the commanders named Kalimba goes into [[DK's Treehouse|Donkey Kong's Treehouse]] and unsuccessfully tries to hypnotize [[Donkey Kong]]. Donkey Kong punches Kalimba out of his house and begins his quest to reclaim his bananas and save the island from the new threat.


At the end of every world, Donkey Kong and [[Diddy Kong]] go up against a higher-ranked tiki, who hypnotize a boss to fight both of them. For example, in the Cave world, the tiki commander Banjo Bottom employed [[Mole Miner]]s to transport the stolen bananas and possessed their leader [[Mole Miner Max]]. In the Factory world, it is revealed that the bananas are being used to mass-produce tikis. After the [[Kong]]s defeat each boss, each tiki dizzily re-emerges from the unconscious boss. Donkey Kong can go up to the tiki and punch it repeatedly to send it flying away or simply let it escape after it recovers.

After a long journey, Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong reach the end of the eighth world, Volcano, where they bump into all seven high-ranked tikis again and the Tiki Tak Tribe's leader, [[Tiki Tong]]. Using the last of the banana hoard supply, Tiki Tong turns it into banana juice and spews it over his lieutenants. This transforms them into a large pair of hands, which Tiki Tong uses during the final battle against the Kongs.

The Kongs manage to defeat Tiki Tong, who explodes, launching them into space. However, Donkey Kong uses his entire strength to knock the [[moon]] out of its orbit and land it on the tribe's [[Tiki Tong Tower|base]]. The moon's pressure pushes it back down into the volcano, which destroys it, releases the stolen bananas and sends the moon flying back into orbit. As the bananas rain from the sky, the animals are freed from their hypnosis. With their leader and his lieutenants defeated, the Tiki Tak Tribe's reign over the island is over and it is saved, marking the end of the Kongs' adventure.
