'''Torch Tusk''' is the third [[Tusk]] and ruler of the [[Peach Kingdom]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]''. It is a similar color to [[Grave Tusk]] except having a darker tusk and red eyes. Like [[Gloat-Hog]], Torch Tusk is fought in a volcanic area.


Torch Tusk stands on a platform separate from [[Donkey Kong]]. A river of lava divides Torch Tusk from the landmass that Donkey Kong is on. Like previous Tusks, [[Donkey Kong]] must throw [[Blood Pine]]s at Torch Tusk to attack it. Torch Tusk uses the same laser attack of Grave Tusk except it aims at Donkey Kong more accurately.
Torch Tusk is much harder than the other two Tusks faced in the game, as the cannonballs he shoots are on fire, and will set the platform they land on completely ablaze. Like [[Grave Tusk]] he also has a [[Laser]] attack, but this one is harder to dodge. A pit of lava seperates him from Donkey Kong. Like the other Tusks, he will suck in [[Pineapple]]s, and they will explode inside of him. However, because of his Laser, Donkey Kong will get less of a chance to throw the Pineapples into his trunk. He will mainly have to settle for simply hitting his body, which does far less damage. The battle against Torch Tusk seems to take place in a volcano.


Due to Torch Tusk's laser, Donkey Kong has fewer opportunities to throw a Blood Pine directly into its trunk, and he mainly has to throw them on its body, which does a lot less damage. After taking enough damage, Torch Tusk begins to shoot out flaming cannonballs, and the platform that it lands on is temporarily lit entirely ablaze.

*The textures of [[Grave Tusk]] and Torch Tusk are internally swapped, suggesting they were meant to be encountered in opposite order.
