Wild Sting attacks by flying back-and-forth across the screen, occasionally swooping down at [[Donkey Kong]] or [[Diddy Kong]]. During this, the [[Kong]] must jump onto Wild Sting to attack it. For each hit, Wild Sting moves around faster and in a less predictable pattern. It only turns around after going off-screen. Wild Sting gets defeated upon taking seven hits. | Wild Sting attacks by flying back-and-forth across the screen, occasionally swooping down at [[Donkey Kong]] or [[Diddy Kong]].
