'''Kuchukas''' are a type of [[Kremling]] that hides in a purple barrel filled with [[bomb]]s. They appear as enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. Their barrel design resembles that of [[Knocka]]s, [[Kracka]]s, and [[Klasp]]s. Like these enemies, Kuchukas are never fully shown except for their purple arms and eyelids, which match the color of their barrel. | |||
Kuchukas have the same name in Japanese. The "chuck" in their name references how they continually throw bombs. | |||

In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', Kuchukas only appear in one level: [[Pot Hole Panic (Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!)|Pot Hole Panic]]. Kuchukas behave differently from Knockas as they remain stationary inside a barrel without moving and continuously attempt to throw [[bomb]]s at the [[Kong]]s and their [[Animal Friends]]. They cannot be picked up and can only be defeated by a [[TNT Barrel]]. A Kuchuka also appears in a [[Bonus Level]] of Pot Hole Panic, where it tries to prevent the Kongs and [[Squitter the Spider|Squitter]] from collecting the green bananas | In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', Kuchukas only appear in one level: [[Pot Hole Panic (Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!)|Pot Hole Panic]].

In ''Donkey Kong Land III'', Kuchukas appear in more levels than their previous appearance. A single Kuchuka appears at the very end of [[Stalagmite Frights]], and they appear in most levels of the [[Lost World (Donkey Kong Land III)|Lost World]]: a bonus stage in [[Whiplash Dash]], [[Kuchuka Karnage]], [[Haunted Hollows]], and [[Ghoulish Grotto]].

Unlike ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', Kuchukas cannot be defeated because there are no TNT Barrels, which are used to defeat Kuchukas in their debut appearance. | ||
In the original [[Game Boy]] version, Kuchukas look the same as Knockas due to the monochromatic screen. In the Japanese [[Game Boy Color]] port, Kuchukas are distinctively colored purple. | |||
