'''Mama Saws'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier. ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Official Game Guide. Page 13.</ref> are fish enemies appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. Their appearance is based on the real-life [[wikipedia:Sawfish|sawfish]], as each Mama Saw displays a narrow spiky nose extension, resembling a saw &ndash; hence the species' name. They have flattended body structures, which are orange-colored, as well as striped with discrete shades of the said color. In particular, two lightly-tinted circular strokes surround their eyes.


Mama Saws swim from side to side, charging at the Kongs if they see them, damaging them if they come into contact. Mama Saws can be defeated by being [[Corkscrew (Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze)|Corkscrew]]ed into from behind. [[Cranky Kong]] can also defeat them by swiping at them with his cane, which will additionally work against their front sides.
Mama Saws swim lazily from side to side, turning around when they reach a certain point in their traversed distance. With their spiky noses, they can thrust the [[Kong]]s and damage them, taking away one [[heart]] from the heroes' health meter. The Kongs can be damaged anyway if they come into sheer contact with a Mama Saw from any of its sides. Nonetheless, the Kongs can ram into its rear side by performing a [[Corkscrew (Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze)|corkscrew]] move; as a result, the Mama Saw gets defeated. Although this combat move is futile againt their armed frontal areas, Mama Saws can be alternatively taken out with [[Cranky Kong|Cranky]]'s cane swipe from anywhere.


Mama Saws are found in three levels of [[Sea Breeze Cove]], namely [[Irate Eight]], [[Rockin' Relics]], and [[Shoal Atoll]], where they always patrol underwater areas.
[[Sea Breeze Cove]] is the habitat of a large number of Mama Saws. Particularly, they can be encountered in levels such as [[Irate Eight]], [[Rockin' Relics]] and [[Shoal Atoll]], where they always patrol underwater areas. Mama Saws are sometimes strategically arranged in defensive rows, and move simultaneously with the other companions.
