'''Lemguin''' is a large sharp-billed [[wikipedia:Crested penguin|crested penguin]] encountered in the games ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. Lemguin's name is a portmanteau of the animals "[[wikipedia:Lemming|Lemming]]" and "[[wikipedia:Penguin|Penguin]]". Lemguins are the land equivalent of [[Bazza]]s and [[Swoopy|Swoopies]], other enemies which possess similar attack patterns to Lemguins.

In ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', Lemguins only appear in one [[level]], [[Lemguin Lunge]], where they are the titular feature. Various parts of the level feature an indefinite number of Lemguins jumping out from holes in the snow and sliding on their bellies, attempting to hit [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]], similarly to how [[Bazza]]s and [[Swoopy|Swoopies]] spawn indefinitely. A Lemguin can be defeated either from being [[jump]]ed on or by taking a hit from a [[Cartwheel Attack]] or a [[barrel]]. The Kongs cannot defeat Lemguin by rolling into it from the front, as this harms them. In [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]], Lemguins are classified under the "[[Terrorfirma Tuff Guys]]" enemy class. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake, Lemguins jump straight upward before sliding on their belly.
Lemguins first appear in ''Donkey Kong Country 3'', where Lemguins are encountered in one [[level]] in the game, named [[Lemguin Lunge]], which is located in [[K3]]. In this level, [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] must dodge Lemguins that come out of holes, which they indefinitely spawn from. These enemies leap from their holes and slide on their bellies, attempting to collide with the [[Kong]]s. A Lemguin can be defeated by [[jump|jumping]] on it, hitting them with a [[Cartwheel Attack|cartwheel]] from behind, or by hitting them with any type of [[barrel]]. Attacking Lemguins from the front will damage the Kongs. In the original version of ''Donkey Kong Country 3'', Lemguins leap forward out their holes to slide, but in the ''Game Boy Advance'' remake of the game, they jump straight up before sliding.
 
According to the game's credits, Lemguins belong to the "[[Terrorfirma Tuff Guys]]" enemy class.

The second and only other game appearance of Lemguins is in ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'', where they only appear in two levels: [[Polar Pitfalls]] and [[Tundra Blunda]]. They behave no differently than in the previous game. In the [[Game Boy Color]] port, Lemguins have purple-colored sprites.
Lemguins reappear in ''Donkey Kong Land III'', where they are found in two levels, [[Polar Pitfalls]] in the area [[Primate Plains]], and [[Tundra Blunda]] in the area [[Blackforest Plateau]]. In the [[Game Boy Color]] version of the game they are recolored purple. Here, the attack patterns of Lemguins remain the same and can still be defeated in the same way.
