'''Nids''', also known as '''Springin' Spiders''' | '''Nids''', also known as '''Springin' Spiders'''<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 90, page 32.</ref>, are large jumping spiders encountered in the hollow tree stages of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and in its [[Game Boy]] sequel ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. They act as bouncing platforms and have a plank of wood on them for [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong|Kiddy]] to sit on. Like [[Arich]], Nid's name is derived from its "arachnid", a real world class in which spiders belong in. | ||
Nids are categorized under the "[[Terrorfirma Tuff Guys]]" enemy class in [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]]. Despite this classification, Nids do not injure the [[Kong]]s and are closer in behavior to [[Animal Friend]]s. | |||
