Wild Sting is the name of a stingray that appears in the Game Boy video game, Donkey Kong Land. He is the game's very first boss, found at the end of Gangplank Galleon Ahoy!, in the level, Wild Sting Fling. Strangely, this underwater creature is able to float above land. Wild Sting resembles the Flotsam of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and could be the inspiration for them.
During the battle against Wild Sting, the foe swoops down and attempts to attack the Kongs. At that time, the heroes need to jump up and land on him. This damages the enemy, but does not yet fully knock him out. Wild Sting continues to swoop at the primates as the battle progresses, going back and forth. They must bounce on him again to deal more damage, although that still does not faze the villain. As they continue to jump on him, Wild String becomes even angrier, and swoops at them much faster than before, making it even harder to land on him. Finally though, when the Kongs bounce on him for the seventh time, he falls off the stage and the heroes win the battle. After that, three Banana Bunches fall from the sky, which the heroes must catch before the level ends.
The words in the level's name King Zing Sting from Donkey Kong Country 2 is composed in a same manner as Wild Sting Fling, as they both contain first the name of the boss that is fought in there.
Also, the creature's name is probably a pun on the famous song Wild Thing.
