Karbine

Karbines are uncommon owl-like enemies encountered in the game Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble. They are small, owl like enemies that cannot be defeated, or even attacked.

Karbines hide in the background, using cannons to shoot fireballs at the Kongs. In DKC3, they only appear in one level, Fire-Ball Frenzy, a level in which there are many of them. In Donkey Kong Land III, they appear in more levels, and even have their own level, "Karbine Kaos".

Strangely, in DKL3, Squitter is immune to Karbine's fireballs as long as he is standing on the ground.
